Abstract
One of the main characteristics of constitutional transformation in South Africa is what Etienne Mureinik calls the shift towards a culture of justification in which 'every exercise of power is expected to be justified'.1 He argues that within such a culture, constitutional rights 'are standards of justification - standards against which to measure the justification of the decisions challenged under them'.
