A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

 

In Constitutional and Administrative Law, the authors draw upon their extensive teaching and research experience to provide a contemporary and engaging account of the key topics which make up a typical Constitutional & Administrative or Public Law syllabus. Controversial issues and academic debates are also highlighted throughout making this the ideal textbook for anyone requiring a strong understanding of both the black letter principles and the wider socio-political context in which the constitutional arrangements of the UK have developed.

 

Fully updated with all the latest constitutional and legal developments in this area, this second edition contains:

• A dedicated chapter on ‘Political Freedoms and Democratic Participation’ which offers expanded coverage of important civil liberties, including freedom of expression and the right to vote.
• A new section providing an overview of police powers.
• Extensive coverage of the implications of the Brexit referendum decision, including the European Union (Withdrawal Bill) 2017 and the ongoing exit negotiations.
• Discussion of the implications of the 2017 general election and proposed changes to the Westminster parliamentary constituency boundaries.
• An outline of the Strathclyde proposals on the powers of the House of Lords.
• Discussion of the mooted replacement of the Human Rights Act 1998 with a British Bill of Rights.
• Detailed analysis of a number of significant cases include the Miller decisions, R (Evans) v Attorney General, HS2, and R (UNISON) v Lord Chancellor.
