This textbook comprehensively examines and analyses the
interpretation and application of the United Kingdom's Human Rights
Act 1998. The third edition has been fully updated to include the
last seven years of case law. Part I covers key procedural issues
including: the background to the Act; the relationship between UK
courts and the European Court of Human Rights; the definition of
victim and public authority; determining incompatibility including
deference and proportionality; the impact of the Act on primary
legislation; and damages and other remedies for the violation of
Convention rights. In Part II of the book, the Convention rights,
as interpreted and applied by United Kingdom courts, are examined
in detail. All of the key Convention rights are discussed
including: the right to life; freedom from torture and inhuman or
degrading treatment or punishment; the right to liberty; fair
trial; the rights to private life, family life and home; freedom of
religion and belief; freedom of expression; the right to peaceful
enjoyment of possessions; and the right to freedom from
discrimination in the enjoyment of Convention rights. The third
edition of Human Rights Law will be invaluable for those teaching,
studying and practising in the areas of United Kingdom human rights
law, constitutional law and administrative law.
