Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex relationship between Parliament and the courts, bringing to light a history of privilege and power struggles. The author, a renowned expert in the field, meticulously traces the evolution of Parliament's claim to sole determination of its own privileges, revealing a pattern of excessive and arbitrary power that has often clashed with the administration of justice. The book offers a rich tapestry of historical examples, demonstrating how the House of Commons has repeatedly asserted its authority to imprison, fine, and punish those who challenge its claimed privileges, even when such actions infringe upon individual rights and the rule of law. Through a comprehensive analysis of legal precedents, the author exposes the inherent dangers of unchecked parliamentary power, arguing for a more balanced approach that upholds both the sovereignty of Parliament and the fundamental principles of justice. This thought -provoking book serves as a valuable resource for legal scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the delicate balance between legislative authority and individual liberties.
