Details

There are plenty of core textbooks dealing with Public Law, however few books attempt to draw out the contextual and critical aspects of this topic and there is an absence of critical texts designed for law students. The main textbooks approach the law in a more doctrinal way, whilst Great Debates in Public Law focus on particular questions and encourage students to think critically. This new title will discuss key debates associated with Brexit and the UK Constitution such as Does the UK Constitution enable the Government properly to be held to account? and Should the royal prerogative be abolished? It will also include expert views, end-of-chapter conclusions and suggested further reading at the end of each chapter, in keeping with other Great Debates books.
