The law of human rights permeates every area of law. However, for
many practitioners, students and academics it often presents the
intimidating challenge of gaining a confident command of the
specific principles that apply in any given context. This is
particularly the case in domestic criminal law. This book focuses
on the impact of human rights law at every stage of the criminal
process. It traces the principal human rights issues that arise
from protections that apply during an investigation prior to a
suspect even knowing that they are a suspect, to powers of arrest
and search, and treatment at the police station It then considers
every stage of the criminal process up to any potential appeal
before the domestic courts and the European Court of Human Rights.
It is divided into four parts. Part 1 covers the fundamental
principles of the European Convention on Human Rights and the Human
Rights Act 1998 and their application in domestic law, particularly
in relation to criminal appeal. Parts 2 to 4 address the three
broad phases of a criminal case investigation, pre-trial and trial
providing an analysis of human rights law. This dynamic and
inter-disciplinary book offer a considered account of the often
complex interactions between criminal law and human rights; with a
wide range of contributors, marshalled by strong general editors.
The team comprises high quality criminal practitioners (both
solicitors and counsel), academics in the field and those whose
work is focused on the nexus between criminal law and human rights,
such as Liberty and Justice.
