This new major work provides the practitioner with a comprehensive and discursive analysis of the Human Rights 1998 and the case law that has grown up around it since implementation.

Jack Beatson and Stephen Grosz are now joined by Tom Hickman, Professor Stephanie Palmer and Rabinder Singh QC to write a new book based on the earlier successful, Human Rights: The 1998 Act and the European Convention. This team is an unquestionably strong and well respected pool of leading Human Rights experts from practice and academia.

Whilst there are a number of books that concentrate on the various Convention articles, there is no detailed and authoritative treatment of specific sections of the Human Rights Act. Practitioners and academics needing guidance on issues such as the breadth of the courts' interpretative power under section 3 of the Human Rights Act, standards of review and Convention principles are forced to turn to academic journals. For the first time this material will be covered in a major human rights title.

  • High-level, analytical practitioner text providing detailed guidance on the HRA 1998 as it continues to be tested out in the courts and the case law that has grown up around it
  • Includes treatment of the courts' application of human rights outside the HRA in domestic law: coverage of the Scotland Act, Northern Ireland Act and Wales Act that also incorporates the Convention articles
  • Includes treatment of the application of rights at common law, which remain important notwithstanding the HRA
