The New Labour government first elected in 1997 had a defining
influence on the development of the modern UK constitution. This
book combines legal and political perspectives to provide a unique
assessment of the way in which this major programme of
constitutional reform has changed the nature of the UK
constitution. The chapters, written by leading experts in UK public
law and politics, analyse the impact and legacy of the New Labour
reform programme some 20 years on from the 1997 general election,
and reveal the ways in which the UK constitution is now, to a
significant extent, the 'New Labour constitution'. The book takes a
broad approach to exploring the legacy of the New Labour years for
the UK constitution. The contributors evaluate a range of specific
substantive reforms (including on human rights, devolution, freedom
of information, and the judicial system), changes to the process
and method of constitutional reform under New Labour, the impact on
key institutions (such as the judiciary and Parliament), and a
number of wider constitutional themes (including national security,
administrative justice, and the relationship between the Labour
Party and constitutionalism). The book also reflects on the future
challenges for the constitution constructed by New Labour, and the
prospects for further constitutional reform. In bringing together
this range of perspectives to reflect on the implications of the
New Labour era of reform, this book offers a critical examination
of a foundational period in the development of the contemporary UK
constitution.
