A very different book from its predecessor in the SULI series, J D B Mitchell’s Constitutional Law, which was first published almost fifty years ago.
This title's aim is to provide an authoritative account of both the new Scottish constitution and the contemporary governance of Scotland. It also charts the long march towards ‘accountable’ government in Scotland.
After exploring the new Scottish constitution as set out in the Scotland and the Human Rights Act, it examines the separate Scottish, United Kingdom and European dimensions of the contemporary governance of Scotland.
