Singapore Academy of Law Annual Lecture 2024 – “Oceans Apart? New Zealand’s Place in the Common Law Family” [Lecture]

The Right Honourable Dame Helen Winkelmann, GNZM

Published on e-First 6 December 2024

Abstract:
The ability of the common law to adapt itself to the differing circumstances of the countries in which it has taken root, is not a weakness, but one of its great strengths. Were it not so, the common law would not have flourished as it has, with all the common law countries learning from each other.
