n Tydskrif vir die Suid-Afrikaanse Reg - The development of education law as a separate field of law : the experience of the United States with some observations on South Africa : aantekeninge

Abstract

The purpose of this contribution is to discuss and rationalise the development of a separate legal field called "education law" in the United States. The main object is to provide the basis for fruitful comparison with South Africa, where this discipline is currently making steady progress. It is useful and even necessary to gain more insight into the dynamics involved in the process in the United States in order to benefit South African legal thinking and development.
