Description
Public Law provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to this key area of law, making it an ideal choice for students seeking a clear understanding of the UK's constitutional system.
The book explores the institutions, concepts, and legal rules that underpin the UK's constitution, with chapters arranged around four core subjects: the foundations of the constitutional system, Constitutional Law, Administrative Law, and human rights. A central theme of the book is the relationship between the state and the citizen, and how this has evolved in recent years.
Revised to reflect key developments in Public Law, including the impact of Brexit, changes in devolution, and the Coronavirus Act, this third edition offers a modern and contemporary approach to the core law curriculum. By focusing on recent case law and real-world examples, students can gain a deeper understanding of how the law operates in practice.
