- Description: Based on the assumption that development induced displacement brings new challenges that the existing protection frameworks may not be aptly suited to deal with, this article analyses how the existing laws have met this challenge and the prospects for further improvement. While its focus is on Kenya, it evaluates the normative quality of protection and standards offered by regional instruments against the existing, as well emerging, parameters for implementation at the domestic level. In this regard, the article examines the propriety of Kenya’s newly promulgated law on internal displacement in providing for protection for the development induced IDPs, the implementation programme that it establishes and its prospects for furthering the vision of the UN Guiding Principles on Internally Displaced and other regional instruments.

Ecological thinking: Schopenhauer, J M Coetzee and who we are in the world

- Date: 2008

- Description: preprint , For the ecological agenda to make substantive progress, we will have to see powerful people and social agencies turning away from the ecological insanity that threatens us all, and for this to happen, people need to embrace voluntary renunciation, on the understanding that this is not self-sacrifice, but a different and more satisfying way of being in the world. The paper offers some thought, provoked by reading J.M. Coetzee and Arthur Schopenhauer, about what would make this change possible, what might enable it; and secondly why it is implausible that any such ideal might actually come to pass.

- Description: preprint , What an inspired choice of play for this year’s Maynardville offering! With the national scene strewn with trials and rumours of trials, all of them vital to the quality of life citizens of this fair city beneath the beautiful mountain (‘Belmont’) may hope to enjoy in the future, Shakespeare’s cliff-hanger about the use and abuse of the law couldn’t be more apt.

- Description: The Klipriviersberg Group is a small continental flood-type tholeiitic suite forming the basal unit of the Ventersdorp Supergroup, an undeformed late-Archaean supracrustal sequence covering 200000 km2 in the SW part of the Kaapvaal Craton. From the base up, the Klipriviersberg Group consists of the Westonaria, Alberton, Orkney, Jeannette, Loraine, and Edenville formations, with a maximum combined thickness of 1–8 km. Samples were obtained from several borehole cores in the Klerksdorp goldfield close to the type area of the Klipriviersberg Group.
