Synopsis

Since its first edition in 1985, The Changing Constitution has cemented its reputation for providing concise, scholarly and thought-provoking essays on the key issues surrounding the UK's constitutional development, and the current debates around reform. The sixth edition of a highly successful volume provides a thorough review of the latest developments in constitutional reform. It includes a new chapter on 'Constitutional Watchdogs' and expanded consideration of freedom of information and the control of public expenditure. Professors Jowell and Oliver have brought together nineteen expert contributors to offer an invaluable source of material and analysis for all students of public law.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

The Changing Constitution has become firmly established as an invaluable guide to the current state of constitutional affairs in the United Kingdom. (The Student Law Journal)

The Changing Constitution is also part of a public law online resource centre which gathers together a superb list of web links, an excellent interactive timeline, and a useful list of Oxford 'news now'. (The Student Law Journal)

For anyone studying public law, particularly with a constitutional emphasis, The Changing Constitution is an important text. Its list of contributors is impressive, many of them being esteemed authors in their own right. It is rather unique, and feels much like a journal, given its issue based approach: this makes it ideal for essays and really understanding current issues. (The Student Law Journal)

Review from previous edition Since it's first publication in 1985, Jowell and Oliver has been widely regarded as an important supplement to recommended textbooks for Constitutional Law, addressing constitutional development and reform by distinguished academics. This new edition is arguably no exception. (The Law Quarterly Review)
