South Africa's research incentive system rewards faculty members and affiliates for publishing in outlets that are "accredited" by the Department of Higher Education and Training. This arguably perverse incentive makes academic research a potentially aggressive numbers game. It is compounded by factors such as undue delay in peer review, difficulty in securing expert evaluators, and poor understanding of who constitutes a "peer". Despite the "publish or perish" pressure on researchers and the prohibition of the parallel submission of manuscripts by many journals, there is negligible research on publishing problems in South African journals. Informed by a literature survey, editorial experience and conversations with colleagues, this article seeks a dialogue about these problems, which it characterises as a tsetse fly perched on the scrotum. On the one hand, the current incentive system commodifies outputs and diverts attention from building knowledge with socially responsive research to building the financial coffers of universities and authors. On the other hand, inappropriate editorial interpretations of a "peer" and the gratis nature of peer evaluation encumber the publishing process. We argue that this situation erodes academic excellence, encourages the growth of predatory journals, and potentially harms national development.
南非的研究奖励制度对在高等教育与培训部 "认可 "的刊物上发表论文的教师和附属机构给予奖励。这种可以说是不正当的激励措施使学术研究成为一种潜在的激进数字游戏。而同行评审的不当拖延、难以找到专家评审员以及对谁是 "同行 "的认识不清等因素又加剧了这一现象。尽管研究人员面临着 "要么发表,要么毁灭 "的压力,而且许多期刊禁止平行投稿,但对南非期刊发表问题的研究却少之又少。根据文献调查、编辑经验以及与同行的交流,本文试图就这些问题展开对话,并将其描述为栖息在阴囊上的采采蝇。一方面,当前的激励制度将成果商品化,将人们的注意力从开展具有社会响应性的研究来积累知识转移到为大学和作者积累资金上。另一方面,编辑对 "同行 "的不恰当解释以及同行评价的无偿性质阻碍了出版过程。我们认为,这种情况削弱了学术的卓越性,助长了掠夺性期刊的发展,并可能损害国家发展。

Constitutional Damages – a Stagnant or a Changing Landscape? 宪法损害赔偿--停滞不前还是风云变幻?

Section 38 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 provides for appropriate relief where a right in the Bill of Rights has been infringed. In Fose v Minister of Safety and Security 1997 3 SA 786 (CC) the Constitutional Court raised the question of "appropriate relief" with reference to section 7(4)(a) of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa Act 200 of 1993. In the Fose case the plaintiff claimed "punitive constitutional damages" together with delictual damages. While the court did not rule out an award for damages for the infringement, it did not award constitutional damages in that instance, specifically because the plaintiff claimed "punitive constitutional damages". The Fose case has been followed by most of the cases heard in the years after Fose was decided. In most instances where constitutional damages were claimed the courts, following Fose, have not awarded constitutional damages where delictual damages were available. The rules relating to constitutional damages are casuistic and it is submitted that the principle of subsidiarity could form a foundational principle to solve the problem of casuistry in this regard.
1996 年《南非共和国宪法》第 38 条规定,当《权利法案》中的某项权利受到侵犯时,可采取适当的补救措施。在 Fose 诉安全和安保部长 1997 3 SA 786 (CC) 一案中,宪法法院参照 1993 年《南非共和国宪法》第 200 号法案第 7(4)(a)条提出了 "适当救济 "的问题。在 Fose 案中,原告要求获得 "惩罚性宪法损害赔偿 "和违法损害赔偿。虽然法院没有排除对侵权行为进行损害赔偿的可能性,但在该案中没有判给宪法损害赔偿,特别是 因为原告要求的是 "惩罚性宪法损害赔偿"。Fose 案判决后几年审理的大多数案件都沿用了 Fose 案的判决。在大多数要求宪法损害赔偿的案件中,法院都遵循 Fose 案的判决,在可以获得违法损害赔偿的情况下,不判给宪法损害赔偿。与宪法损害赔偿有关的规则是判例性的,据认为,辅助性原则可以成为解决这方面判例问题的基本原则。

Hands off our Intangible Cultural Heritage - Khoin v Jenkins in re: Observatory Civic Association v Trustees for the Time Being of the Liesbeek Leisure Properties Trust 放开我们的非物质文化遗产--Khoin 诉 Jenkins,关于:天文台公民协会诉 Liesbeek Leisure Properties Trust 暂时受托人案

This case note analyses an appeal decision (Khoin v Jenkins in Re: Observatory Civic Association v Trustees for the Time Being of the Liesbeek Leisure Properties Trust [2023] 1 All SA 110 (WCC)) handed down in 2022 by the Western Cape High Court, its purpose being to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the decision and to comment on possible future developments. The text of the judgment is interpreted in the light of judicial precedent, literature and domestic (South African) and international law. One of the key findings is that "intangible heritage" is an integral part of both domestic and international law, and the Khoin-case gives judicial recognition to the concept as a part of South African heritage law. One of the main criticisms levelled against the judgment is that it does not adhere to judicial precedent in failing to find that the right to consultation of First Nations Peoples before administrative action is taken that allegedly violates their constitutional rights to intangible heritage is sufficient to satisfy the test for the existence of a prima facie right for the purposes of obtaining an interim interdict.
本案例说明分析了西开普省高等法院于 2022 年作出的一项上诉判决(Khoin 诉 Jenkins in Re:Observatory Civic Association v Trustees for the Time Being of the Liesbeek Leisure Properties Trust [2023] 1 All SA 110 (WCC)),其目的是找出判决的优缺点,并对未来可能的发展进行评论。判决文本根据司法先例、文献以及国内法(南非)和国际法进行了解释。主要结论之一是,"非物质遗产 "是国内法和国际法的组成部分,Khoin 案使这一概念作为南非遗产法的一部分得到司法承认。对该判决提出的主要批评之一是,它没有遵守司法先例,没有认定原住民在采取行政行 动据称侵犯其非物质遗产的宪法权利之前进行磋商的权利足以满足为获得临时禁令的目 的而存在表面证据确凿的权利的检验标准。

In this contribution Chief Justice Coke's character and contribution to the development of the English law are considered. More specifically the focus falls on his profound knowledge of the Common Law and the concomitant emphasizing of human freedom. Coke's emphasizing of the Common Law was the cause of continuous conflict between himself and King James 1 and later also King Charles 1. True to the Royal approach in this era they strongly endorsed Royal absolutism, believing it stemmed from a divine origin. James 1 enjoyed the support of Sir Francis Bacon. Also between him and Coke intense rivalry, also of a personal nature, existed. Against James 1 and Bacon's continuing attacks on his views, Coke could only turn to the common law.
这篇论文探讨了首席大法官科克的性格以及他对英国法律发展的贡献。更具体地说,重点在于他对普通法的深刻理解以及随之而来的对人类自由的强调。科克对普通法的强调是他与国王詹姆斯一世(King James 1)以及后来的国王查尔斯一世(King Charles 1)之间冲突不断的原因。在这个时代,他们忠实于王室的做法,坚决支持王室专制主义,认为它源于神圣的起源。詹姆斯一世得到了弗朗西斯-培根爵士的支持。他与科克之间也存在着激烈的个人竞争。面对詹姆斯一世和培根对他观点的不断攻击,科克只能求助于普通法。

Rising Tides: The Acquisition of Ownership by Alluvio in the Context of Sea Level Rise 潮起潮落:海平面上升背景下的阿卢维奥所有权收购
Q3 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2023-11-23 DOI: 10.17159/1727-3781/2023/v26i0a16463

One of the most significant consequences of the global climate crisis is that the rate at which sea levels are rising has accelerated over the past 100 years and will continue to do so for the next century. The accelerated rise in the global mean sea level will inevitably affect the rights and interests of the owners and occupiers of coastal land, especially of coastal land that is bounded by the high-water mark (agri non limitati). This is because changes in the location of the high-water mark brought about by rising sea levels will result either in the acquisition of coastal property where the high-water mark moves seaward or in the loss of coastal property where the high-water mark moves landward. The law relating to the loss or acquisition of coastal property as a result of changes in the location of the high-water mark may be traced back to the common law principles governing the acquisition of ownership by alluvion (alluvio) and the loss of ownership by erosion. As part of an attempt to address the consequences of sea level rise, section 14(5) of the National Environmental: Integrated Coastal Management Act 24 of 2008 has amended some of these common law principles. The purpose of this article is to set out and critically analyse the provisions of section 14(5).
全球气候危机最重要的后果之一是,海平面上升的速度在过去 100 年里加快了,并将 在下个世纪继续加快。全球平均海平面的加速上升将不可避免地影响沿海土地,特别是以高水位线(agri non limitati)为界的沿海土地的所有者和占用者的权益。这是因为,海平面上升引起的高水位线位置的变化将导致高水位线向海移动的沿岸土地的获 得或高水位线向陆地移动的沿岸土地的丧失。有关因高水位线位置变化而丧失或获得沿海财产的法律,可以追溯到普通法中有关因冲积 (alluvio)而获得所有权和因侵蚀而丧失所有权的原则。作为应对海平面上升后果的努力的一部分,2008 年第 24 号《国家环境:综合海岸管理法》第 14(5)条修订了其中一些普通法原则。本文旨在阐述并批判性地分析第 14(5)条的规定。

Legal History as the Perfect Vessel: Teaching with Infographics for the Development of Digital Visual Literacy Skills in Law Students 法律史是完美的容器:利用信息图表教学培养法学专业学生的数字视觉素养技能
Q3 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2023-11-23 DOI: 10.17159/1727-3781/2023/v26i0a15664

Digital literacy development must be regarded equally essential as the development of other literacies and critical thinking skills in Bachelor of Laws students. Because law teachers do not include visuals in learning materials, law students do not develop the skills to effectively interpret them. Digital visual literacy (DVL) is one of the core digital literacies law teachers can advance in their students to prepare them for our visually-driven world. Legal historical course material is the perfect vessel for visual learning materials in law, as these can effectively communicate the spacio-temporal aspects of legal history and legal historical development. A recent empirical study of the views of South African students of legal history indicated their positive sentiments toward a wide variety of visual learning materials and the inclusion of instructor-generated summary infographics in online learning materials. They were also in favour of the inclusion of descriptive visuals like timeline infographics containing additional visual elements in legal historical course content. The study also indicated that reading and interpreting infographics aid the development of DVL skills, and the more infographics students interact with, the better they become at interpreting them. Since the instructor-generated summary infographic can be designed to communicate information about a specific module, it is suited to teaching any legal content. Visual learning artefacts can be created and sourced in numerous ways, but the process can be time-consuming. Sharing these amongst colleagues and institutions as open educational resources (OER) will ultimately aid a collective project aimed at the development of the DVL skills of South African law students. The article provides examples of instructor-generated summary infographics based on legal historical course content, distributed as freely available OER.
数字素养的培养必须与法学学士学生其他素养和批判性思维能力的培养同等重要。由于法学教师没有在学习材料中加入视觉内容,法学学生也就无法培养有效解读视觉内容的技能。数字视觉素养(DVL)是法学教师可以培养学生的核心数字素养之一,为他们进入视觉驱动的世界做好准备。法律史课程材料是法律视觉学习材料的完美载体,因为这些材料可以有效传达法律史和法律史发展的时空方面。最近一项针对南非法律史专业学生观点的实证研究表明,他们对各种可视化学习材料以及在在线学习材料中纳入教师生成的信息图表摘要持积极态度。他们还赞成在法律史课程内容中纳入描述性视觉材料,如包含更多视觉元素的时间轴信息图表。研究还表明,阅读和解读信息图表有助于发展 DVL 技能,学生接触的信息图表越多,解读能力就越强。由于教师生成的信息图表摘要可以设计成传达特定模块的信息,因此适合于任何法律内容的教学。可视化学习工件可以通过多种方式创建和获取,但这一过程可能非常耗时。将这些作品作为开放教育资源(OER)在同事和机构之间共享,最终将有助于旨在培养南非法律专业学生DVL技能的集体项目。本文举例说明了教师根据法律历史课程内容制作的信息图表摘要,并作为可免费获取的开放式教育资源发布。

Innovative Approaches to the Division of an Inheritance in a Deceased Estate: Lessons from the Babylonians 2000-1600 BCE 遗产分割的创新方法:公元前 2000-1600 年巴比伦人的经验教训

This article provides insights into the legal and social contexts surrounding inheritance divisions in both Old Babylonian and South African cultures. It proposes an innovative approach to the division of inheritance in South Africa that is in line with the country's constitutional values and diverse cultural heritage. In order to compare the inheritance divisions, the study identifies the shared characteristics between Old Babylonian and South African practices. These inheritance divisions often involve disagreements and complexities among heirs, which may result in negotiations and the reorganisation of inheritances through mechanisms like sale, donation or exchange. By highlighting these commonalities the article sheds light on the differences and similarities in the legal and social contexts in which these divisions occur. While the South African approach has been influenced by Roman-Dutch legal scholars, incorporating the adaptable legal practices of the Old Babylonian tradition could introduce further innovation and adaptability to the South African inheritance division process
本文深入探讨了古巴比伦和南非文化中围绕遗产分割的法律和社会背景。文章提出了一种符合南非宪法价值观和多元文化遗产的创新继承划分方法。为了比较继承权的划分,本研究确定了古巴比伦和南非习俗的共同特点。这些继承划分往往涉及继承人之间的分歧和复杂性,可能导致谈判,并通过出售、捐赠或交换等机制重组遗产。通过强调这些共性,文章揭示了发生这些分割的法律和社会背景的异同。虽然南非的方法受到了罗马-荷兰法律学者的影响,但将巴比伦古国传统中具有适应性的法律实践纳入其中,可以为南非的遗产分割过程带来进一步的创新和适应性。

While the South African approach has been influenced by Roman-Dutch legal scholars, incorporating the adaptable legal practices of the Old Babylonian tradition could introduce further innovation and adaptability to the South African inheritance division process","PeriodicalId":55857,"journal":{"name":"Potchefstroom Electronic Law Journal","volume":"69 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139244035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this contribution to honour Willemien du Plessis we use the economic approach to law to explain how environmental law affects economic development and vice-versa. The contribution starts by presenting the Environmental Kuznets Curve that makes clear that environmental regulation should not retard economic development but that, on the contrary, environmental protection and economic growth can go hand-in-hand, provided there is environmental regulation. The contribution further discusses the idea of competition between legal orders and how this affects environmental law, and to this end both the race to the bottom as well as the race-to-the-top are discussed. Finally, attention is paid to the role of environmental law in economic development.
在这篇纪念维尔米安-杜普莱西斯的文章中,我们用法律的经济学方法来解释环境法如何影响经济发展,反之亦然。文章首先介绍了环境库兹涅茨曲线,明确指出环境监管不应阻碍经济发展,相反,只要有环境监管,环境保护和经济增长可以齐头并进。这篇论文进一步讨论了法律秩序之间的竞争以及这种竞争对环境法的影响,并为此讨论了竞相逐低和竞相逐高的问题。最后,还关注了环境法在经济发展中的作用。
