Abstract: Jonathan Klaaren has numerous publications (chapters, articles, book reviews, books) to his name on an array of subjects including human rights, forced migration, the electoral process, constitutional law, and freedom of information legislation. Most notably, he is co-editor of the South African Journal on Human Rights and of Chaskalson et al., Constitutional Law of South Africa (1999) and was editor-in-chief of the Columbia Human Rights Review. He is co-author of The Promotion of Access to Information Act Commentary (2002) and The Promotion of Administrative Justice Act Benchbook (2001). Most of the records in this collection (section A - F) were collected during Klaaren's participation in Open Democracy Advice Forum (ODAF) and the Open Democracy Working Group. Klaaren has donated these records with a view to opening some of the history of the processes underlying the drafting of the Promotion of Access to Information Act (PAIA).
