Drafting for a Post Conflict and Collapsed State The Case of Afghanistan
Zafar Gondal
European Journal of Law Reform
Volume 11, Issue 3, 2009 p.369-402

Millions of dollars are being poured to recover countries from post-conflict situations and stop other from relapsing into failed state without satisfactory outcomes. This paper is an attempt to establish that quality laws, strong institutions and clear procedures for enforcement are of immediate concern in post conflict countries and should not be compromised due to security reasons. This paper outlines the causes and consequences of state failure and role of quality laws and strong institutions in arresting states from relapsing into failed and collapsed states. It asserts that it is the responsibility and liability of a state to make quality laws and if a state is failing it is committing negligence and negating an important fundamental human right. The paper also suggests the reform menu for a collapsed state in general and for Afghanistan in particular and urges the UN agencies and other international donors that the quality laws are no luxury. The paper also examines and evaluates the existing framework for legislative drafting in Afghanistan; the challenges to legislation in Afghanistan; the problems faced by draft persons; causes of failure of international efforts to bring peace to Afghanistan; presents critical appraisal of current situation in Afghanistan after seven years. Finally it presents a detailed recipe for shaping the laws for post-conflict Afghanistan in line with Afghan National Anti-Corruption Strategy. In the end a seven steps strategy for improving law drafting in the post-conflict states generally and in Afghanistan specifi cally is outlined.

Mind the gap: Public power, accountability and the Northern Territory emergency response
Peter Billings
Australian Journal of Administrative law
Volume 17, Number 3, May 2010 p.132

This article identifies and critically examines the operation of public power in relation to the Commonwealth’s emergency, race-based response to complex problems in regional and remote communities in the Northern Territory (the so-called “intervention” ). It considers institutions and processes concerned with the scrutiny, review and monitoring of the Commonwealth’s intervention. A summary of the emergency response is presented alongside an analysis of how normal political processes were abridged as the emergency legislation was sped into law and how power was concentrated within the executive branch. The outcomes of administrative and judicial review processes, and the reports of institutions monitoring the intervention’s effectiveness and compliance with international human rights norms are examined. Finally, the article assesses the influence of assorted accountability mechanisms upon the behaviour of the government vis-à -vis policy, law reform and administration in the period since the intervention commenced.
