C. A. Gearty is Rausing Director of the Centre for the Study of Human Rights, and Professor of Human Rights Law, London School of Economics and Political Science. He is a founder member of Matrix Chambers, from where he continues to practice law.
`.. . the second and third sections are focussed on the practical implementation of the core principles, and consider an impressive range of the domestic cases...Professor Gearty's ambitious undertaking - to reduce the complex jurisprudence surrounding the HRA to a handful of principles - succeeds in provoking the reader to consider whether these themes can truly be identified in the HRA...it is a valuable contribution to the ongoing debates in this area; its attempt to construct a coherent approach to the HRA is a useful complement to the more detailed guides to ECHR rights.' Simon Atrill, Cambridge Law Journal 65(1)

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Human Rights Act 1998 was one of the first pieces of legislation passed by New Labour. Some ministers believe that it is the greatest thing that they have done, whereas others view it as a dangerous mistake. This volume explains what the Act is about, where it fits into Britain's constitutional tradition, and explores whether or not it has achieved its goals. The Act has now been in force for three years, and a large body of case law hasbuilt up around it. The Act has enjoyed its fair share of controversies and has produced its own range of disappointments. It has become part and parcel of law courses in all universities, and hasattracted the attention of practitioners from all areas of practice. It is now part of Britain's constitutional furniture, of interest and relevance not only to lawyers but also to political scientists, contemporary historians, and the general public. This book takes a fresh look at the place of the Human Rights Act in Britain's constitutional order. It locates the measure in its political and historical context and analyses the case law from the perspective not only ofprinciple but also of practical experience. It examines the effect of the Act, and provides the reader with the tools to make informed predictions on the likely outcome of cases. The Human Rights Act 1998 was one of the first pieces of legislation passed by New Labour. This volume explains what the Act is about, where it fits into Britain's constitutional tradition, explores whether or not it has achieved its goals, and examines the effect of the Act.
