Thematic coherence is ensured by the fact that the papers were presented at a conference in early 2003 and then extensively revised and by a general focus on a path-breaking decision of Canada's Supreme Court (Baker). The book thus contains a highly productive exchange between an international group of scholars on such themes as the rule of law, judicial deference, the separation of powers, the role of human rights in common law reasoning on immigration and security matters, and the nature of legal authority.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Desire for an autonomous social life of law, a life that dares speak to the supreme power, and even arrest its exercise, has always animated the work of lawpersons, legal theorists especially among them. In this work, David Dyzenhaus and his eminent colleagues insist that this is a rational desire summoning the futures, or the fates, of the 'unity of public law'. The diversely framed disciplinary traditions fragments it through specialisms labelled variously as the constitutional, administrative, public international, and international human rights law. The idea of the 'unity of public law' is expressed here at many levels.” —\u003ci\u003eThe Law and Politics Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Professor David Dyzenhaushas edited this superlative work, consisting of 17 finely-tuned essays, by as many renowned contributorsThis collection of essays is suffused with comparative law and it resonates with integrated analysis, poise and erudition.
