Beschreibung

This course introduces the fundamentals of British Constitutional law, including the sources of law in this area and the fundamental principles such as the rule of law and parliamentary sovereignty. The course considers the ‘unwritten’ nature of the constitution in the sense that there is no single codified document such as the GG in Germany or the Constitution in the US. Students will see how Acts of Parliament, common law (case law) and conventions play their part. The course introduces the voting system, how laws are made, the role and composition of Parliament, the Crown, the Government, its function and the various forms of scrutiny. The course also considers human rights aspects, devolution and judicial review. The UK’s relationship with the EU will also be considered with a particular emphasis on Brexit.
