Synopsis

The Human Rights Act of 1998 incorporated into UK law rights and freedoms guaranteed by the European Convention on Human Rights. Human Rights Law affects everyone, yet it remains the most uncertain and unpredictable of all the branches of law. With hard-edged definitions few and far between, principles tend to be open to a variety of interpretations - a goldmine for some, but a minefield to the unwary. The Handbook of Human Rights Law provides accessible guidance on all areas affected by human rights legislation. The book looks at how to use human rights law (with a chapter identifying practical winning strategies and tactics), while later chapters examine the various Convention rights. The text is peppered throughout with interesting coverage of high profile cases and includes discussion of the issues and principles involved. Case law, examples and question-and-answer discussion sections are included, making this one of the most direct and straightforward titles on human rights law. It is accessible to all, but comprehensive enough to be used by students of law as well as Human Resource Managers and other business people.
