The Cambridge Constitutional History of the United Kingdom: Volume 2, The Changing Constitution Summary

The Cambridge Constitutional History of the United Kingdom: Volume 2, The Changing Constitution by Peter Cane (Christ's College, Cambridge and Australian National University)

Featuring contributions from leading scholars of history, law and politics, this path-breaking work traces the development of the United Kingdom's constitution from Anglo-Saxon times and explores its role in the creation, exercise and control of public power. Essays in Volume Two, entitled 'The Changing Constitution', examine the development of the constitution from the departure of the Romans up to the present day and beyond. Together, the two volumes form the first, wide-ranging history of the constitution to be published for more than 50 years. By its cross-disciplinary approach, taking account of the latest legal, political and historical scholarship on the constitution, it fills a large gap in the literature of the constitution, and in political thought and British history.
