Abstract Twenty-five years after the formal end of apartheid, the majority of South Africans still live in poverty, with the attainment of socio-economic rights remaining elusive. While some progress has been made, there is a clear need for new approaches to ensure that rights to housing, food and education are fulfilled in reality, and do not merely remain words in a well-written constitution. In this regard, one approach that holds great potential for expediting the realisation of socio-economic rights is extra-judicial engagement. Extra-judicial engagement here refers to participatory processes occurring outside of courts. However, there is a need to ensure that concerns about the quality of such engagement are addressed to strengthen its success in aiding the realisation of socio-economic rights. The #FeesMustFall movement is a practical attempt at extra-judicial engagement and can thus provide useful insights into the potential and challenges relating thereto.
种族隔离制度正式结束25年后,大多数南非人仍然生活在贫困中,社会经济权利的实现仍然难以实现。虽然取得了一些进展,但显然需要采取新的办法,以确保住房、食物和教育权利在现实中得到实现,而不仅仅是成文宪法中的文字。在这方面,一种极有可能加快实现社会经济权利的办法是法外参与。法外参与在这里指的是发生在法院之外的参与过程。然而,有必要确保解决对这种参与质量的关切,以加强其在帮助实现社会经济权利方面的成功。#学费必须下降#运动是法外参与的实际尝试,因此可以为其潜力和相关挑战提供有用的见解。

Navigating uncharted waters: biobanks and informational privacy in South Africa 在未知的水域航行:南非的生物库和信息隐私

Abstract Biobanks (organised collections of human biological material and associated information stored for research purposes) are becoming invaluable to human health research. However, concerns have been voiced in the literature that POPIA – the new legislation that aims to protect personal information – may stymie the functioning of South African biobanks. The main reason for the concern is the dichotomy between specific consent (consent to use biological material and associated information for a specific research study) and broad consent (consent to use biological material and associated information for a variety of future research studies): While the current ethical and legal regulatory framework applicable to biobanks in South Africa requires only broad consent, POPIA appears to increase the benchmark to specific consent. A common model for building biobanks in South Africa is what we refer to as the ‘dual consent’ model – namely to obtain both specific consent for an initial research study, and broad consent for storage of material and associated information and the use thereof in future studies. We analyse the provisions of POPIA from a biobanking perspective, and conclude that biobanks that were built using the dual consent model would be able to use their collections of material and associated information for further new research studies, provided they comply with three conditions: (1) non-publication of the genetic information in an identifiable form; (2) the research must be in the public interest; and (3) sufficient guarantees must be in place to protect the research participants’ privacy. However, biobanks that were built using other models that did not include specific consent for the initial research study, would have to opt for either de-identification of their material and associated information, or obtain new specific consent from their research participants for a new research study.
生物银行(为研究目的而存储的人类生物材料和相关信息的有组织的集合)对人类健康研究变得非常宝贵。然而,文献中有人担心,旨在保护个人信息的新立法POPIA可能会阻碍南非生物银行的运作。引起关注的主要原因是具体同意(同意在特定研究中使用生物材料和相关信息)和广泛同意(同意在各种未来研究中使用生物材料和相关信息)之间的二分法:虽然目前适用于南非生物银行的伦理和法律监管框架只需要广泛同意,但POPIA似乎将基准提高到了具体同意。在南非建立生物银行的一种常见模式是我们所说的“双重同意”模式——即既要获得初步研究的具体同意,也要获得材料和相关信息的存储以及在未来研究中使用的广泛同意。我们从生物银行的角度分析了POPIA的规定,并得出结论,使用双重同意模型建立的生物银行将能够将其收集的材料和相关信息用于进一步的新研究,前提是它们符合三个条件:(1)不以可识别的形式公布遗传信息;(二)研究符合社会公共利益;(3)必须有足够的保障来保护研究参与者的隐私。然而,使用其他模型构建的生物库,如果不包括初始研究的具体同意,则必须选择对其材料和相关信息进行去识别,或者从研究参与者那里获得新的具体同意,以进行新的研究。

Abstract Dissent plays an important role in judicial decision-making and can have a far-reaching impact on the development of law. It is therefore important to analyse the role that dissenting judgments plays in legal decision-making and question how dissenting arguments influence the functioning of a court and, in this instance, specifically the Constitutional Court. This case note analyses the judgment in Prince v President, Cape Law Society (2002) and traces how the dissenting judgment became the majority decision in Minister of Justice and Constitutional Development v Prince (2018). The case note highlights the need for contextual evidence in judicial decision-making and its importance in understanding the wider impact legal decisions might have.
异议在司法决策中发挥着重要作用,对法律的发展有着深远的影响。因此,重要的是要分析持不同意见的判决在法律决策中所起的作用,并质疑持不同意见如何影响法院的运作,在这种情况下,尤其是宪法法院的运作。本案例说明分析了Prince诉President,Cape Law Society(2002)一案的判决,并追溯了司法和宪法发展部长诉Prince(2018)一案中反对判决如何成为多数裁决。案例说明强调了在司法决策中需要背景证据,以及其在理解法律裁决可能产生的更广泛影响方面的重要性。

Utilising transformational leadership to implement disability laws in the South African workplace 利用转型领导在南非工作场所实施残疾法

Abstract South Africa is a party to various international human rights instruments that obligate it to develop enforcement mechanisms to include persons with disabilities in the workplace. Among such mechanisms is the need to develop legislation to deal with workplace disparities. In this context, South Africa has, over the years, enacted different labour laws aimed at addressing disparity and injustices of the past in the workplace. Persons with disabilities are among those who were prejudiced and continue to experience discrimination based on their status. Despite the evolution of the labour legislation and the obligation imposed by international instruments, disability laws are not effectively enforced. While research has been conducted generally on the rights of persons with disabilities, it appears that there has not been much research focussing on the enforcement of disability laws particularly from workplace leader’s perspective. This article therefore seeks to explore South Africa’s obligation towards enforcement of disability provisions in the workplace and recommends a transformational leadership approach to effectively enforce legislation governing disability in the workplace, thereby safeguarding the rights of persons with disabilities.
南非是各种国际人权文书的缔约国,这些文书要求南非制定执法机制,将残疾人纳入工作场所。在这些机制中,有必要制定立法来处理工作场所的不平等。在这方面,南非多年来颁布了不同的劳工法,旨在解决过去工作场所的不平等和不公正现象。残疾人是因其地位而受到歧视并继续受到歧视的人之一。尽管劳工立法和国际文书规定的义务有了演变,但残疾法没有得到有效执行。虽然对残疾人的权利进行了普遍的研究,但似乎没有太多的研究侧重于残疾人法的执行,特别是从工作场所领导者的角度。因此,本文试图探讨南非在工作场所执行残疾规定方面的义务,并建议一种变革的领导方法,以有效执行有关工作场所残疾的立法,从而保障残疾人的权利。

Braamfontein encroaching? An internationalist reading of the South African Constitutional Court judgment on the SADC Tribunal Braamfontein侵犯?南非宪法法院对南部非洲发展共同体法庭判决的国际主义解读

Abstract On 11 December 2018, the Constitutional Court of South Africa ruled that the President’s signature to the 2014 Protocol concerning the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Tribunal, which limits the authority of the SADC Tribunal, must be withdrawn. As the Court ventured outside the bounds of domestic law in the case, this paper reads those arguments of the Court grounded in international law from an international law perspective. In doing so, we explore the implications, contributions, and dangers that such jurisprudence might entail for general international law, and the SADC legal regime. We ask a number of questions. Is this a domestic court encroaching on international law? What are the consequences of such a move from an international law perspective? And, what does this imply for the future of the SADC Tribunal, and the functioning of this international organisation in general? Through this internationalist reading of the case, we demonstrate how the Constitutional Court’s use of international law has endangered its own decision, as its positions are not defendable within the discipline of public international law. Therefore, while we agree with the overall outcome of the case, we argue that the Constitutional Court has strewn its own path with unnecessary obstacles and traps.
摘要2018年12月11日,南非宪法法院裁定,必须撤回总统对2014年《关于南部非洲发展共同体(SADC)法庭的议定书》的签署,该议定书限制了SADC法庭的权力。由于法院在本案中大胆超出了国内法的范围,本文从国际法的角度解读了法院基于国际法的论点。在这样做的过程中,我们探讨了这种判例法可能对一般国际法和南共体法律制度产生的影响、贡献和危险。我们提出了许多问题。这是一个侵犯国际法的国内法院吗?从国际法的角度来看,这样的举动会产生什么后果?这对南共体法庭的未来以及整个国际组织的运作意味着什么?通过对本案的国际主义解读,我们展示了宪法法院对国际法的使用如何危及其自身的决定,因为其立场在国际公法的范围内是不可辩护的。因此,尽管我们同意案件的总体结果,但我们认为宪法法院在自己的道路上设置了不必要的障碍和陷阱。

A costly blunder: South African History Archive Trust v The South African Reserve Bank 一个代价高昂的错误:南非历史档案信托基金诉南非储备银行

Costs awards are never the most exciting part of a judgment, but nevertheless have enormous significance in terms of their repercussions. This is particularly so when a litigant is a community living in poverty or a non-governmental organisation (NGO) acting in the public interest. In this context, the recent judgment in South African History Archive Trust (SAHA) v South African Reserve Bank (SARB) requires examination, as it contains a costs award against SAHA that, if allowed to stand, may bankrupt the NGO. This article will therefore introduce the case, examine the existing principles applicable to costs awards arising primarily out of the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court, and then try to understand what possible reasons might have motivated the costs award in this case.
成本裁决从来不是判决中最令人兴奋的部分,但就其影响而言,却有着巨大的意义。当诉讼当事人是一个生活贫困的社区或一个为公众利益行事的非政府组织(NGO)时,情况尤其如此。在这种背景下,最近南非历史档案信托(SAHA)诉南非储备银行(SARB)的判决需要审查,因为它包含了对SAHA的费用赔偿,如果允许成立,可能会使非政府组织破产。因此,本文将介绍该案件,研究主要由宪法法院的判例产生的适用于费用裁决的现有原则,然后试图了解本案中可能产生费用裁决的原因。

The right to mine in a ‘protected area’ in South Africa: Mining and Environmental Justice Community Network of South Africa v Minister of Environmental Affairs 在南非“保护区”采矿的权利:南非采矿和环境司法社区网络诉环境事务部长

This note assesses the right to mine in a ‘protected environment’ in South Africa within the prescripts of s 48 of the National Environmental Management: Protected Areas Act 57 of 2003 (NEMPAA). This issue will be evaluated through a critical analysis of the High Court decision in Mining and Environmental Justice Community Network of South Africa v Minister of Environmental Affairs (hereafter, MEJCON). At the outset, it is imperative to note that a ‘protected environment’ is a type of ‘protected area’. A ‘protected area’ is defined as a precisely demarcated geographical area regulated through legal and other mechanisms to guarantee the long-term protection of the environment and the concomitant ecosystem services and cultural values. However, NEMPAA does not clearly define the meaning of the term ‘protected area’. The Act merely states that a ‘protected area’ refers to ‘any of the protected areas’ stipulated in s 9 of NEMPAA. In this regard, s 9 of NEMPAA provides a list of the ‘kinds of protected areas’, including special nature reserves, national parks, nature reserves and protected environments. In essence, a ‘protected environment’ is used to, inter alia, ‘protect the area if the area is sensitive to development due to its biological diversity; natural characteristics; scientific; cultural; historical; archaeological or geological value and scenic and landscape value provision of environmental goods and services’.

本说明根据2003年《国家环境管理:保护区法》第57号(NEMPAA)第48条的规定,评估了南非在“受保护环境”中采矿的权利。将通过对高等法院在南非采矿和环境司法社区网络诉环境事务部长案(以下简称MEJCON)中的裁决进行批判性分析来评估这一问题。首先,必须注意的是,“受保护环境”是一种“保护区”。“保护区”是指通过法律和其他机制进行管理,以保证长期保护环境以及随之而来的生态系统服务和文化价值的精确划定的地理区域。然而,NEMPAA并没有明确定义“保护区”一词的含义。该法案仅规定,“保护区”是指《国家环境保护法》第9条规定的“任何保护区”。在这方面,NEMPAA第9条提供了一份“保护区类型”清单,包括特殊自然保护区、国家公园、自然保护区和保护环境。从本质上讲,“受保护的环境”是用来“保护该地区,如果该地区因其生物多样性而对发展敏感;自然特征;科学的文化的历史的提供环境商品和服务的考古或地质价值以及风景和景观价值。根据NEMPAA,部长

This issue will be evaluated through a critical analysis of the High Court decision in Mining and Environmental Justice Community Network of South Africa v Minister of Environmental Affairs (hereafter, MEJCON). At the outset, it is imperative to note that a ‘protected environment’ is a type of ‘protected area’. A ‘protected area’ is defined as a precisely demarcated geographical area regulated through legal and other mechanisms to guarantee the long-term protection of the environment and the concomitant ecosystem services and cultural values. However, NEMPAA does not clearly define the meaning of the term ‘protected area’. The Act merely states that a ‘protected area’ refers to ‘any of the protected areas’ stipulated in s 9 of NEMPAA. In this regard, s 9 of NEMPAA provides a list of the ‘kinds of protected areas’, including special nature reserves, national parks, nature reserves and protected environments. In essence, a ‘protected environment’ is used to, inter alia, ‘protect the area if the area is sensitive to development due to its biological diversity; natural characteristics; scientific; cultural; historical; archaeological or geological value and scenic and landscape value provision of environmental goods and services’.
