Foundations of Law: Administrative Law & Human Rights Law

The Foundations of Law Series is aimed at postgraduate level readers studying areas of law for the first time. Whilst introducing the framework of key legal concepts, it also gives the reader an opportunity to identify and explore areas of critical interest.

It also offers a structured and contemporary explanation of human rights under the European Convention on Human Rights as given effect in the UK by the Human Rights Act 1998.

Flowcharts are included to aid with analysis, providing a structured approach to both judicial review claims and claims for breach of human rights.
