New law book

Honorary Professor of Law at UCT, Judge Dennis Davis, and UCT law graduate Michelle le Roux have launched a new book on the South African justice system and how it evolved into what it is today.

Precedent & Possibility: The (Ab)use of Law in South Africa draws on some of the crucial court cases in South African history, both under apartheid and in the constitutional democracy, to explain and help us to make sense of present laws.

The book also features a forword by Cyril Ramaphosa.
