The British constitution is regarded as unique among the
constitutions of the world. What are the main characteristics of
Britain's peculiar constitutional arrangements? How has the British
constitution altered in response to the changing nature of its
state - from England, to Britain, to the United Kingdom? What
impact has the UK's developing relations with the European Union
caused? These are some of the questions that Martin Loughlin
addresses in this Very Short Introduction. As a constitution, it is
one that has grown organically in response to changes in the
economic, political, and social environment, and which is not
contained in a single authoritative text. By considering the nature
and authority of the current British constitution, and placing it
in the context of others, Loughlin considers how the traditional
idea of a constitution came to be retained, what problems have been
generated as a result of adapting a traditional approach in a
modern political world, looking at what the future prospects for
the British constitution are. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short

of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books
are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our
