Limiting Abritrary Power

"Taking as its starting point a cogent analysis of the fundamental concepts of "legality" and the "rule of law," Limiting Arbitrary Power undertakes a specific study of the contents of the vagueness doctrine. Ribeiro presents an in-depth exploration of the courts' current approach to it and suggests how this approach may be refined in the future. He examines in detail the possible situations in which vagueness may become applicable under the Charter and proposes techniques for legislative drafting in which certainty would be enhanced without compromising the flexibility required by law." "An important addition to law libraries, Limiting Arbitrary Power will interest legal professionals, legislators, and scholars of constitutional law and legal theory."--BOOK JACKET.
