Recenzii
In the uncertain and unpredictable context of constitutional and Parliamentary development, this book is an essential companion.
The book is an illuminating set of essays on such issues as parliamentary scrutiny of legislation, parliament's constitutional standards, regulation of lobbyists, and parliamentary sovereignty which, taken together, cannot but add to the value to the ongoing debate.
This volume ... prompts us to ask some difficult questions about how we understand and measure Parliament's role in scrutiny and accountability. It is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the tensions between government and parliament on the one hand and between party politics and scrutiny within the Westminster system.
This book will be a helpful guide to anyone who wishes to catch up on recent procedural developments at Westminster...The book provides readers with a good understanding of the speed and direction of movement at a time when UK politics seems volatile and unpredictable.
Overall, the editors have done well to maintain a good balance between information and provocation; the empirical and the rhetorical. This has resulted in some contributions that are must-reads and makes this book a worthy addition to the well-regarded Hart Studies in Constitutional Law series.
This edited collection will be of great interest to those engaged in the study of Parliament and associated matters. The editors have brought together eminent scholars and highly professional and experienced parliamentary officers and staff to offer a detailed analysis of matters that relates to the health of Parliaments and hence the health of democratic political systems. Scholars, parliamentarians, officers and staff of Parliaments and students at the undergraduate and post-graduate level should read this book.
... the contributors between them have a high level of both theoretical understanding and practical expertise and indeed the mixture is manifest from the content, which includes both critical analysis and thoughtful suggestions ... I feel that this is very much a book for those who, frustrated by the academic distinction between law and politics, wish to read material that covers both. The book succeeds very well in that regard and I very much hope that the overlap will come increasingly to be addressed.
