Description

There is something altogether natural in the joining of forces of the Law Commission of Canada, the Quebec Research Centre of Private and Comparative Law of McGill University, and the McGill Law Journal for the presentation of this special issue on legislation. Each institution shares a preoccupation with the legislative form and, in particular, with imagining the rightful place of enactment in the catalogue of legal ideas. Since its establishment in 1997, the Law Commission has identified legislation--defined in broad terms--as a central feature of its mandate relating to governance relations. (1) From its inception, too, the Centre of Private and Comparative Law has shown an abiding scholarly interest in the manner and form of legislative enactment, particularly in respect of the fortunes of the Civil Code of Lower Canada and the Civil Code of Quebec. (2) The McGill Law Journal has, in turn, identified legislation as a lively field of legal research over its fifty-year publication history. (3) All share a bijural and bilingual institutional orientation and an intellectual curiosity about the fundamental nature of law that extends to the polyjural and multilingual dimensions of the legislative form. Indeed all come to legislation as a site for communicative acts in law--a view that serves to fie the papers in this collection loosely together. This is not to say that these three institutions or the authors they have gathered together in this issue surfer any more or less than most from that lawyers' disease that champions legislation, especially of the state-made variety, over other forms of law.
