Democracy and the Human Rights Act

This book discusses the extent to which the UK Human Rights Act successfully balances protection of rights and democracy. It is generally accepted that the Act prevents government from violating fundamental rights, but the extent to which the Act can legitimately be overridden as a result of public opinion and participation is less clear. The book will be a valuable resource for students and academics researching constitutional legal theory, and comparative constitutional law. While the focus in on the UK HRA, broader theoretical issues of constitutional review will have significant international interest.
