Examples taken from documents currently in use illustrate the problems and plain English principles provide the vehicle for change.","PeriodicalId":107403,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Commonwealth Law and Legal Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123688411","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}

The history of Nigerian federalism dates back to the pre‐independence Constitution of 1954 called the Lyttleton Constitution. However, with the advent of the 1979 and 1999 Constitutions, there has been a profound change in the practice of Federalism in the Country which has called into question whether Nigeria is indeed a federation. This question has been further accentuated by the recent damning report of the National Intelligence Council of the United States Government which forecasted that by the year 2020, Nigeria might cease to exist as a nation state! The level of government that should take responsibility for such issues as power sharing arrangement, revenue allocation, maintenance of public order, fiscal federalism, judiciary are the major centripetal and centrifugal forces that have threatened the stability of the Federation.

There are three distinct categories of judicial performance evaluation: traditional forms of accountability, including the principle of ‘open justice’ and appellate review; analysis of judicial attributes; and court and administrative performance measurement. The first two categories relate to individual judges, the latter to the management and administration of a court in an aggregate sense. It is argued that the traditional approaches to judicial accountability are flawed measures by which to evaluate the performance of individual judges. The analysis of judicial attributes, including legal ability, temperament, communication and other generic skills, as conducted in the United States, Nova Scotia and planned in Australia, offers a viable method for Commonwealth judges to engage in judicial self‐improvement as part of judicial method. The application of the criteria to Commonwealth legal syst...","PeriodicalId":107403,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Commonwealth Law and Legal Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115873701","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}

This article describes the content of a two‐day course run for the Law Society of South Africa School for Legal Practice, Durban, in which students are taught negotiation and mediation skills. A variety of interactive learning methods are used in which students experience non‐adversarial methods of dispute resolution. By the end of the course each student would have participated in several negotiation and mediation exercises and would have conducted one mediation. The course is highly rated in the student evaluations for the amount of ‘learning through doing’ that occurs. Its success lies in that it is a practical, not academic, course.","PeriodicalId":107403,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Commonwealth Law and Legal Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133696214","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}

Similarly, the provision of the LLB within New Zealand has likewise grown to reflect the nature of New Zealand as a strong and independent nation with a well‐developed legal profession. In relation to the provision of post‐degree legal training, New Zealand has much to learn from the positive initiatives in place in England and Wales. However, conversely it is our contention that there is much for New Zealand to avoid and the system of England and Wales to learn from the dilution of the English and Welsh LLB. 1 Dr Chris Gallavin LLB (Hons) (Cantuar), PhD (Hull).
