		The twelfth edition of Dicey and Morris, the second to be edited by Lawrence Collins and a team of specialist editors, continues to provide a clear and comprehensive statement of the laws in this technical area.

		It is a term often associated with the English legal scholar Albert Venn Dicey who described the ‘rule of law’; as a paramount characteristic of the English Constitution.
		According to Dicey, the last conception would provide a role for the judiciary in stemming what was called “collectivist” legislation.
		If the ‘rule of law’; idea has such wide-spread appeal, it should not be surprising to find that it is a resource over which political contests will continue to be fought far into the future.

		The argument of this essay is that Dicey's separation of 'law' and 'history' was not only an expression of the legal positivism that has gripped - and continues to grip - common law method since the late nineteenth century.
		Although Dicey thought that legal science could keep English constitutional doctrine and constitutional history distinct, such separation was not one to which the New Zealand polity aspired a century later and a hemisphere away.

	Why Nobody Talks About Blue-Eyed Babies Any More
		In this context, it is not surprising that that towering giant of Public Law theory, Albert Venn Dicey, should be such an embarassment to the modern mainstream.
		This hypothetical law was one that would order the murder of all blue-eyed babies (A V Dicey: Introduction to the Study of the Law of the Constitution) (see, for example, page 5 at the webpage: http://www.hansard.act.gov.au/hansard/1993/pdfs/19931013.pdf).

	Division of Labour: The Practical Man
		Apparently this previous post of mine is derived from this famous passage in Albert Venn Dicey's classic book Law & Public Opinion in England (1914).
		Dicey himself puts the story of "the practical man" in quotations, attributing it to the English socialist Sidney Webb.
		The man of system...seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chess-board...but that, in the great chess-board of human society, every single piece has a principle of motion of its own...

	H-Net Review: Michael Les Benedict on The Politics of the British Constitution
		The sovereign Parliament was unconstrained by law, but the practical exercise of power was constrained by the constitutional principle of "the rule of law." This principle required that government act only as authorized by law, according to the principles of the common law that protected individual rights.
		All three criticized Dicey's stress on the rule of law, arguing that it merely justified the penchant of judges to interpret progressive legislation narrowly.
		They, more than Dicey, are responsible for the prominence of unconstrained parliamentary sovereignty in mid-twentieth-century British constitutional thought -- and the attenuation of the rule of law and conventions as constraints on that sovereignty.
