Parliament and the Law: Hart Studies in Constitutional Law

Editat de Alexander Horne, Gavin Drewry
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iun 2020
Parliament and the Law (Second Edition) is an edited collection of essays, supported by the UK's Study of Parliament Group, including contributions by leading constitutional lawyers, political scientists and parliamentary officials. It provides a wide-ranging overview of the ways in which the law applies to, and impacts upon, the UK Parliament, and it considers how recent changes to the UK's constitutional arrangements have affected Parliament as an institution. It includes authoritative discussion of a number of issues of topical concern, such as: the operation of parliamentary privilege, the powers of Parliament's select committees, parliamentary scrutiny, devolution, English Votes for English Laws, Members' conduct and the governance of both Houses. It also contains chapters on financial scrutiny, parliamentary sovereignty, Parliament and human rights, and the administration of justice. Aimed mainly at legal academics, practitioners, and political scientists, it will also be of interest to anyone who is curious about the many fascinating ways in which the law interacts with and influences the work, the constitutional status and the procedural arrangements of the Westminster Parliament.

PRAISE FOR THE FIRST EDITIONThe breadth of this book is readily apparent, and the detail highly impressive - Parliament and the Law will be a very valuable resource for academics, officials, practitioners , and others keen to understand the intricate nature of the issues here covered.
Altogether the book provides thorough and insightful analysis for students, academics and practitioners.
[T]he second edition of Parliament and the Law, in competently exploring and critiquing recent developments in relation to the Westminster Parliament across a wide range of topics, helps to lift the veil on this ancient and mysterious institution. The changes from the first edition, both in terms of content and contributors, demonstrates a strong commitment on the part of the editors to address new developments both expertly and directly.
The collection of essays is invaluable to the legal fraternity and parliamentarians around the world and the book must find a place in libraries and book shelves.
