This keynote lecture of the Foundation for Law, Justice and Society (FLJS) was delivered by the Chief Justice of South Africa in Oxford on 11 June 2008 to open the Foundation's two-day workshop on Adjudicating Socio-Economic Rights. The lecture addressed the relationship between the entrenchment and enforceability of socio-economic rights in South Africa. Chief Justice Langa argues that the Constitution is best understood as a manifesto for positive transformation towards an equal society.
The workshop brought together the two FLJS programmes 'Courts and the Making of Public Policy' and 'The Social Contract Revisited'.

September 8, 2011 - South African Constitutional Court Justice Edwin Cameron speaks on Constitutionalism, Rights, and International Law: The Glenister Decision. (Annual Bernstein Lecture 2011)
Since it was handed down on 17 March 2011, the judgment of South Africa's Constitutional Court in Glenister v President of the Republic of South Africa has received both acclaim and criticism from legal scholars, political analysts and civic-minded South Africans. A narrow majority of the Court upheld a challenge to the constitutional validity of legislation that disbanded the country's elite corruption-fighting unit. The majority's pivotal finding was that the obligation to create an independent corruption-fighting unit, a requirement of international law, also had direct domestic constitutional effect. By cutting through the theoretical divide regarding the relationship between international and national law and placing clear reliance on the South African Constitution's own invocation of international law, the majority judgment demands that there be consonance, not dissonance, between what the government says and does internationally and what it says and does domestically.

Roosevelt House welcomes Edwin Cameron, Justice of the Constitutional Court, South Africa's highest court. He is one of South Africa's most prominent judicial figures and has a long history of activism, especially with regards to the fight against HIV and AIDS. Justice Cameron was the first, and remains the only, senior South African official to state publicly that he is living with HIV/AIDS. His latest book, Justice: A Personal Account, was published in February 2014.
Cameron practiced at the Johannesburg Bar from 1983 to 1994. From 1986 he was a human rights lawyer based at the University of the Witwatersrand's Centre for Applied Legal Studies (CALS), where he was awarded a personal professorship in law. His practice included labor and employment law; defense of ANC fighters charged with treason; conscientious and religious objection; land tenure and forced removals; and gay and lesbian equality. From 1988 he advised the National Union of Mineworkers on AIDS/HIV, and helped draft and negotiate the industry's first comprehensive AIDS agreement with the Chamber of Mines. While at CALS, he drafted the Charter of Rights on AIDS and HIV, co-founded the AIDS Consortium (a national affiliation of non-governmental organizations working in AIDS), which he chaired for its first three years, and founded and was the first director of the AIDS Law Project. He oversaw the gay and lesbian movement's submissions to the Kempton Park negotiating process. This, with other work, helped secure the express inclusion of sexual orientation in the South African Constitution. In September 1994, he was awarded silk (senior counsel status). President Mandela appointed him an acting judge and later a judge of the High Court. In 1999/2000 he served for a year as an Acting Justice at the Constitutional Court. In 2000 he was appointed a Judge of Appeal in the Supreme Court of Appeal. He was appointed as Justice of the Constitutional Court of South Africa on January 1st, 2009.

Constitutionalism
Constitutionalism is "a complex of ideas, attitudes, and patterns of behavior elaborating the principle that the authority of government derives from and is limited by a body of fundamental law".
Political organizations are constitutional to the extent that they "contain institutionalized mechanisms of power control for the protection of the interests and liberties of the citizenry, including those that may be in the minority". As described by political scientist and constitutional scholar David Fellman:
Usage
Constitutionalism has prescriptive and descriptive uses. Law professor Gerhard Casper captured this aspect of the term in noting, "Constitutionalism has both descriptive and prescriptive connotations. Used descriptively, it refers chiefly to the historical struggle for constitutional recognition of the people's right to 'consent' and certain other rights, freedoms, and privileges.... Used prescriptively... its meaning incorporates those features of government seen as the essential elements of the... Constitution".

Since it was handed down on 17 March 2011, the judgment of South Africa's Constitutional Court in Glenister v President of the Republic of South Africa has received both acclaim and criticism from legal scholars, political analysts and civic-minded South Africans. A narrow majority of the Court upheld a challenge to the constitutional validity of legislation that disbanded the country's elite corruption-fighting unit. The majority's pivotal finding was that the obligation to create an independent corruption-fighting unit, a requirement of international law, also had direct domestic constitutional effect. By cutting through the theoretical divide regarding the relationship between international and national law and placing clear reliance on the South African Constitution's own invocation of international law, the majority judgment demands that there be consonance, not dissonance, between what the government says and does internationally and what it says and does domestically.

Roosevelt House welcomes Edwin Cameron, Justice of the Constitutional Court, South Africa's highest court. He is one of South Africa's most prominent judicial figures and has a long history of activism, especially with regards to the fight against HIV and AIDS. Justice Cameron was the first, and remains the only, senior South African official to state publicly that he is living with HIV/AIDS. His latest book, Justice: A Personal Account, was published in February 2014.
Cameron practiced at the Johannesburg Bar from 1983 to 1994. From 1986 he was a human rights lawyer based at the University of the Witwatersrand's Centre for Applied Legal Studies (CALS), where he was awarded a personal professorship in law. His practice included labor and employment law; defense of ANC fighters charged with treason; conscientious and religious objection; land tenure and forced removals; and gay and lesbian equality. From 1988 he advised the National Union of Mineworkers on AIDS/HIV, and helped draft and negotiate the industry's first comprehensive AIDS agreement with the Chamber of Mines.

wn.com/Justice Edwin Cameron Constitutionalism And The Rule Of Law In South Africa At Twenty
Roosevelt House welcomes Edwin Cameron, Justice of the Constitutional Court, South Africa's highest court. He is one of South Africa's most prominent judicial figures and has a long history of activism, especially with regards to the fight against HIV and AIDS. Justice Cameron was the first, and remains the only, senior South African official to state publicly that he is living with HIV/AIDS. His latest book, Justice: A Personal Account, was published in February 2014.
Cameron practiced at the Johannesburg Bar from 1983 to 1994. From 1986 he was a human rights lawyer based at the University of the Witwatersrand's Centre for Applied Legal Studies (CALS), where he was awarded a personal professorship in law. His practice included labor and employment law; defense of ANC fighters charged with treason; conscientious and religious objection; land tenure and forced removals; and gay and lesbian equality. From 1988 he advised the National Union of Mineworkers on AIDS/HIV, and helped draft and negotiate the industry's first comprehensive AIDS agreement with the Chamber of Mines. While at CALS, he drafted the Charter of Rights on AIDS and HIV, co-founded the AIDS Consortium (a national affiliation of non-governmental organizations working in AIDS), which he chaired for its first three years, and founded and was the first director of the AIDS Law Project. He oversaw the gay and lesbian movement's submissions to the Kempton Park negotiating process. This, with other work, helped secure the express inclusion of sexual orientation in the South African Constitution. In September 1994, he was awarded silk (senior counsel status). President Mandela appointed him an acting judge and later a judge of the High Court. In 1999/2000 he served for a year as an Acting Justice at the Constitutional Court.
