Accountability, Impeachment and the Constitution: The Case for a Modernised Process in the United Kingdom: Routledge Frontiers in Accountability Studies
Autor Chris Monaghanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 ian 2024
The work examines the present law and history of impeachment in the United Kingdom, which today is widely regarded as having fallen into desuetude and its procedures inappropriate for modern conditions. It discusses how impeachment operates in two countries, the United States and Denmark, selected respectively for their marked differences from and similarities to the United Kingdom’s political and constitutional system, for the purposes of illumination and possible lessons for a new impeachment process. The book seeks to provide a balanced and independent examination of the case for this, concluding that it would have a valuable role to play in the future development of the United Kingdom’s system of politics and government. It concludes by setting out a detailed model for the structure, working and effect of impeachment.
The book will be of interest to students, academics and policy-makers working in the areas of constitutional law and politics.

PostgraduateRecenzii
"At a time when the ‘good chaps theory of government’ seems to be failing British democracy, Chris Monaghan'sAccountability, Impeachment and the Constitution charts a radical new reform agenda. Evidence-based, provocative and incredibly timely... this is the book that could really shape the future of British politics."
- Matthew Flinders, University of Sheffield, United Kingdom.
"An outstanding work on a much talked-about constitutional device that originated in Britain where it is now defunct, but famously continues to operate in the United States. Chris Monaghan makes a powerful case for a revived and reformed impeachment procedure at Westminster, designed to strengthen ministerial responsibility to Parliament and - at a time when judicial review is under threat - buttress the political forms of control and redress over the abuse of executive power and unconstitutional conduct."
- Robert Blackburn, King's College London, United Kingdom.
"In Britain, impeachment is generally regarded as obsolete. Chris Monaghan seeks, however, to show that it can be a powerful weapon in strengthening governmental accountability. His book is both analytical and securely based on comparative evidence. It is also original and provocative and should be read by anyone interested in British government."
- Vernon Bogdanor, King's College London, United Kingdom.
