Using Human Rights Law in English Courts (Hardcover)

This study demonstrates the scope that already exists for using international human rights law in English courts, regardless of its status as "incorporated" or "unincorporated". Murray Hunt addresses directly what are commonly supposed to be the theoretical obstacles to using human rights law in English courts, in order to raise awareness of the extent to which these obstacles have been removed due to recent developments in English judicial practice. The book also features a comprehensive table of English cases in which the courts have made some reference to or use of international human rights law. The table is linked to the four central chapters of the book where these cases are analyzed in detail. This text will be of relevance to lawyers working in many areas, including: prisons, mental health, immigration, broadcasting law and libel, planning and environmental law, gay and lesbian rights, and crime and civil liberties generally.
