The forgotten fundamental freedoms of the Charter

Sinopse

"This collection of 13 papers examine many of the freedoms listed in section 2 of the Charter (freedom of religion, freedom of thought, freedom of peaceful assembly and freedom of association) that have been "forgotten" in the sense that they have not received (much) interpretation in jurisprudence or discussion in legal scholarship. The papers first discuss the jurisprudential background of the Charter and then the common themes and connections between different forgotten freedoms. The volume then analyzes in depth each of the four kinds of fundamental freedoms. Also included is an appendix outlining the history of section 2 of the Charter and resulting sources, as well as comparative provisions in international humans rights instruments, that may be used for further research"--
