Описание: This book examines New Zealand’s constitution, through the lens of constitutional realism. It looks at the practices, habits, conventions and norms of constitutional life. It focuses on the structures, processes and culture that govern the exercise of public power – a perspective that is necessary to explore and account for a lived, rather than
textual, constitution.
New Zealand’s constitution is unique. One of three remaining unwritten democratic constitutions in the world, it is characterised by a charming set of anachronistic contrasts. “Unwritten”, but much found in various written sources. Built on a network of Westminster constitutional conventions but generously tailored to local conditions. Proudly independent, yet perhaps a purer Westminster model than its British parent.
Flexible and vulnerable, while oddly enduring. It looks to the centralised authority that comes with a strong executive, strict parliamentary sovereignty, and a unitary state. However, its populace insists on egalitarian values and representative democracy, with elections fiercely conducted nowadays under a system of proportional representation. The interests of indigenous Maori are protected largely through democratic majority rule. A reputation for upholding the rule of law, yet few institutional safeguards to ensure compliance.

Описание:
Karl's rage exploded. "Why doesn't our good God smite the whole Nazi regime right now?" He shook a fist, "Why doesn't He wipe them out and stop this wickedness? How can He stand by and watch His chosen people wiped out by the millions?" A tear slipped from his eye unchecked, and his voice broke. "Why doesn't He weep at what is happening?" He tightened every muscle, shook his fists, and bellowed. "Why " In Chronos: Incursion, the long-awaited sequel to Chronos One, Dean Palmer courageously tackles life's toughest questions about pain and suffering. His insightful answers point to a treasure-trove of hope and much-needed meaning in a world bereft of both. The second novel in the epic Chronos trilogy, Incursion continues the Chronos saga with the story of three men's lives intertwined across time by a force that threatens to undo time, itself: Kemuel, the heartbroken Guardian commander who fights to defend humanity against enemy incursions through time; Karl, the mysterious, angry Seer who struggles to keep the Nazis from changing history; and Joel Stark, the third generation caught up in the epic story of devices more powerful and destructive than humanity's worst weapons. Destined to inherit the Seer's mission and abilities, inexplicably ripped back-and-forth across time, racked with guilt from his past, and pulled against his will into wars both past and present, Joel must decide--like his mentor--whether and how he could ever trust the God who has permitted everything around him to happen.
