ABSTRACT:
This article traces the history of the doctrine of charitable immunity and its application to both the charitable enterprise and assets from its birth in the early 19th century in England and its rejection throughout the common law world. In doing so, the paper shows how the doctrine keeps recurring in legal argument and case law, though disguised as an aspect of trust law or the law of property and not charitable immunity.
