Description

Introduction to the English Legal System is an excellent starting point for all those coming fresh to the study of law. Written in a highly engaging and approachable style, it introduces readers to the purposes and functions of law and the law-making process; it also explains what is happening to the English legal system, why it is happening, and considers what the future may bring. With the legal system facing a period of profound uncertainty, the book covers recent institutional developments and their significance for key matters of public interest, including human rights, control of crime, fears of a compensation culture, and access to justice. Adopting a 'holistic' approach, the book does not just describe, it also challenges readers' assumptions about the law and encourages them to question the extent to which the legal system is able to meet the demands placed upon it.
