E-grāmata: Leading Works in the History of the Constitution [Taylor & Francis e-book]

"This collection brings together academic analysis of leading contemporary accounts of the British Constitution with key constitutional documents and sources, while also offering analysis of the leading histories of the Constitution. The works in question represent examples of the constitutionally most significant legislation, judicial decisions, and commentaries by scholars and key actors. Its scope is the seven hundred years of English, and then British, history from the Magna Carta to Britain as an imperial power grappling with the question of how to govern India. The contributors, presenting a balance of established academics and early career researchers, present an original and succinct account of the significance of each leading work. They draw upon the context in which it was written, contemporary literature and more modern academic analysis of the work and its author(s). Presenting a complement to standard texts on the history of the constitution, the book will be of interest to researchers and academics working in the areas of Constitutional Law and Politics, Public Law and Legal History"-- Provided by publisher.
