Double-weighted statement

This book took 5 years of concentrated study of the nature and dynamics of constitutional review under the Human Rights Act 1998.� It provides a comprehensive analysis of all cases concerning review of primary legislation under the HRA, and a close examination of the interaction between Parliament and the courts, including questions of proportionality and deference.� The final�chapters engage critically with, and contribute to, leading theoretical debates on the nature and justification for judicial powers to uphold rights and assess whether the HRA can be reconciled with parliamentary sovereignty.�The�book combines doctrinal, political and theoretical analysis.�
