The plea of truth and public benefit as a defence to an action for defamation in South African lawGrogan, John January 1985 (has links)
From introduction: The study begins with a detailed examination of the origins of the defence in Roman law, and traces the dispute over the role of the veritas convicii through the writings of the Roman-Dutch jurists and the decisions of the pre-Union colonial courts in South Africa. The gradual absorption of the requirement of public benefit into the contemporary law is examined. Subsequent sections attempt to extract from the case law and to systematise the rules relating to the requirements of the defence of truth and public benefit, with a view to setting forth the circumstances in which the truth may lawfully be published. Section 2 deals with problems relating to proof of the truth of the imputation; Section 3 with the problem of when publication can be said to serve the public benefit. The final section seeks to examine the juridical basis of the defence and to relate it to recent developments in the law of defamation as a whole. Brief conclusions are then drawn and recommendations made.

The Supreme Court, freedom of expression, and the law of libel.Magee, James J. 01 January 1972 (has links) (PDF)
Freedom of expression is an essential core of a well- functioning, iree and open society. But, for practical reasons, the freedom of speech and press cannot be given an absolute value in a society of multiple freedoms. Other values and societal interests inevitably conflict with the freedom of expression. A malicious lie, for instance, not misinforms the public? it may also seriously destroy an individual's reputation. Or, publishing statements about a person's private life may constitute an interference with his right to privacy, the right to be left alone. Surely, too, there is a prime interest in the public's awareness of governmental activity; but, publishing an unauthorized disclosure of military secrets and governmental documents during wartime might easily jeopardize national security. Thus, in a society which values conflicting and competing interests, countless situations necessarily arise in which the particular circumstances demand a curb on the freedom of expression. Providing the freedom of speech and press with an unbounded license to trample over other social values will not only stifle the purpose of free expression, but will also endanger the health of a free society.

Defamation and the internetCollins, Matthew January 1999 (has links)
The Internet is a unique and revolutionary medium of communication. The objective of this dissertation is to identify whether there are areas in which reform of the rules of Australian civil defamation law needs to be undertaken to meet the challenges posed by this new medium and, if so, to advocate desirable reforms. / The methodology by which the dissertation sets out to achieve its objective is a systematic analysis of how the defamation cause of action, defences and remedies, as well as relevant jurisdiction and choice of law rules, apply, or are likely to apply, to material published via the Internet. / It is possible to distil five features of communication via the Internet which are of relevance to the operation of the rules of civil defamation law: / - Internet communications do not respect geographical boundaries: they involve the transfer of signals from computers in indeterminate locations, to other computers in indeterminate locations, via routes which are indeterminate; / - intermediaries, in the form of Internet service providers and network operators, play a central role in all Internet communications; / - material published via the Internet can be republished to a wide and geographically diverse audience more easily than material published via other means; / - material on the Internet is organised through the use of hyperlinks which blur the distinction between where one publication ends and the next begins; / - the Internet can be used in a wide variety of ways, to resemble almost any other medium, including the telephone, the postal service, radio, television, newspapers or libraries. / Once the way in which the Internet works and is used is understood, it is possible to predict how most of the rules of defamation law would apply to material published via the Internet. The outcome of the research undertaken in this dissertation is that most of those rules are capable of being applied without the need for reform. / In other areas, however, the existing rules give rise to uncertainty, or undesirable outcomes, when applied to Internet publications. In those areas, reform is desirable. Ultimately, four areas of reform of the existing rules of defamation law are identified, and desirable reforms suggested: / 1 Reform to clarify whether different types of Internet publication are libel or slander. / 2 Reform to ensure that intermediaries of Internet publications are only liable for civil defamation where their conduct is sufficiently culpable to warrant the attribution of liability. / 3 Expansion of the remedies available in civil defamation law to provide successful plaintiffs with more effective means of vindicating their reputations where they have been damaged by defamatory Internet publications. / 4 Reform of the choice of law rules applicable to intra-Australian publications, by adoption of a rule that substantive rights and liabilities are determined by applying solely the law of the place (or places) of publication, regardless of the place in which proceedings are brought and determined.
