Hilaire Barnett's Constitutional and Administrative Law has
consistently provided students with reliable, accessible and
comprehensive coverage of the Public Law syllabus. Mapped to the common
course outline, the Fourteenth edition equips students with a thorough
understanding of the UK constitution's past, present and future by
analysing and illustrating the political and socio-historical contexts
that have shaped the major rules and principles of constitutional and
administrative law, as well as ongoing constitutional reform.
This edition has been fully updated and includes discussion of the
consequences of the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union,
including the impact on the legislative supremacy of Parliament and the
relationship between EU and domestic law after departure. It also
features discussion of the 2020 Coronavirus Act, with its implications
for state power, and ahead of the forthcoming new SQE qualification,
revised multiple choice questions on the Companion Website.
Ideal for students studying constitutional and administrative law for
the first time, this is an indispensable guide to the challenging
concepts and legal rules in public law.
