Synopsis "judicial review of legislation"

constitutionalism is the permanent quest to control state power, of which the judicial review of legislation is a prime example. although the judicial review of legislation is increasingly common in modern societies, it is not a finished project. it still raises questions as to whether such review is justified, and how it may be structured. questions that beg continuous research and thought. yet, these questions cannot be studied on their own, but come alive by studying how they are addressed in various legal systems. this book will address these matters by comparing the judicial review of legislation in the uk (the human rights act of 1998), the netherlands (the halsema proposal of 2002) and the constitution of south africa of 1996. these systems present valuable material to study the issues raised by judicial review. the netherlands is of particular interest as its constitution still prohibits the constitutional review of acts of parliament, while allowing treaty review of such acts instead. a position that the halsema proposal wants to even out by allowing the courts to also apply constitutional norms to legislation and not only international norms. the hra and the south african constitution also present interesting questions that will make their study worthwhile. one can think of the issue of dialogue between the legislature and the judiciary. a topic that enjoys increased attention in the uk and has not really been introduced to the south african thought on judicial review. these and similar issues will be studied in each of the three systems, to not only gain a better understanding of the systems as such, but also of judicial review given their combined experience in this field.
