Constitution Futures Revisited

The UK is going through a period of unprecedented constitutional change. Where are these changes taking us? Will devolution lead to Scottish independence and the break up of the UK? Will a British bill of rights lead to yet more power for the judges? Will there be electoral reform at Westminster? And will this mean more power for Parliament, or less?

In Constitutional Futures Revisited: Britain's Constitution to 2020, leading political scientists and lawyers forecast the impact of these changes on the UK’s key institutions and the constitution as a whole. The book, published by Palgrave, is an indispensable guide for policy makers, lawyers and judges, the media, academics, students, and anyone interested in the future of the UK’s political landscape.
