Details

Taking a unique and critical approach to the study of Public Law, this book explores the main topics in UK Public Law from a range of underexplored perspectives and amplifies the voices of scholars who are underrepresented in the field. As such, it represents a much-needed complement to traditional textbooks in Public Law.

Including insights from a diverse list of contributors, the book:

Enriches students’ understanding of the dynamics that emerge within public law
Highlights the impact of historical and societal inequities on public law norms
Demonstrates the ways in which those norms may impact minorities and perpetuate inequalities

With most chapters written by underrepresented or minoritised persons in the field, this text offers students a critical, rich, and insightful approach to public law.
