your teacher gives you hint sheets!? If she continues to do this, tell her to stop, you will never learn proper exam study technique.

A bit, particularly for 'law and society', but other then that not too much. It's like any other subject though, you need to fully understand those basic concepts to excel in the year 12 course (unless you have an amazing memory)

- What Are The Difficulties When Individuals Try To Challenge The Power Of The State?

Cost issues and the inability to access Government information that could be released under Freedom of Information laws.

Difficulties with individuals challenging the state is that the state has more power and more money than the individual. They can therefore get the best lawyers and ultimately win the case, as well as actually having the funding to take the matter to court which most people just don't have. Also as it's been said, the government can choose what you access, what you don't... they get the best access though, because they rule the country.

The domestic law one - rights of individuals are protected via the law, and duties of individuals that the government and society imposes. Duties are always enforced in order to give a right:
Right to be safe in any place - Duty of care to others in society.

They kind of tie together, really...



Sorry, just checked the date, this might be late... hope not, anyway...

Good luck with it all.

1. Not too sure about this but Australia ratifies treaties from the united nations and when it's "ratified", the law has to be implemented in all law making and bodies subordinate to the government in power. The main law Australia has ratified regarding the rights of the individual is the universal decleration of human rights which basically covers all the rights of a human so denying an individual their rights is considered 'unlawful' and so there are sanctions to breaking the law . Not sure if i answered your question but i hope i did.
2. Time, Cost, Language Barrier/lack of legal system terminology, lack of access to legal information

The Government must ratify the treaty through the Governor-General, which makes Australia a party to the treaty under international law, then the Government may introduce legislation through Parliament that makes the treaty have domestic force.

The UDHR is not a treaty, and is not legally binding in any way. The main treaties regarding rights that Australia is a party to are the ICCPR and ICESCR, neither of which have been enacted into Australian law, and thus do not have domestic legal force. They continue to bind Australia in international law though.

Anyway, that's how I understand it
