Description
About the Great Debates in Law Series:
The Great Debates series is designed to provide engaging and accessible analysis of the more advanced legal concepts. For books in the major taught subjects, such as Public Law, the series is designed for use by ambitious students alongside a main course textbook. For books addressing subjects that are less often taught (e.g. Family Law), the series provides a clear and critical exposition of the key areas of debate. By focussing on particular questions and tensions underlying a subject, Great Debates titles encourage students to think critically, analyse a topic and gain additional insights. These skills and the discursive nature of the series, with an emphasis on contentious topics, are also useful for students when preparing their dissertations.
About Great Debates in Public Law:
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.
