Details

The Law and Practice of Human Rights provides a thorough yet usable guide to human rights law and practice.

The Law and Practice of Human Rights provides a thorough yet usable guide to human rights law and practice. Written by a team of expert practitioners at Landmark Chambers, the book examines the legal framework established under the European Convention on Human Rights, while also highlighting the enduring relevance of the common law in protecting rights and liberties.

The authors provide in-depth analysis of both substantive and procedural aspects of the law, detailed and practical chapters describe the content of applicable protections, the domestic application of the Human Rights Act 1998, and the steps involved in taking a case to Strasbourg.

Targeted at practitioners working in fields that interact with human rights, and those who wish to understand the current state of human rights law in the UK, this book aims to be an important and up-to-date tool for all those involved in this contentious but essential area of practice.
