This book discusses the way in which the constitutions are shaped by,
and shape, the values and identities inherent in them and how those
values and identities may be realised as fundamental rights and,
consequently, protected. It examines the values, identities and rights
of the UK constitution – which is highly dynamic and political in
nature – and of constitutions more generally. The text comprises
three parts. The first part examines the continuing, expanding
executive dominance of Parliament and the constitution in a changing
political and constitutional landscape. The second part looks at the
relationship among constitutional values, principles and rights and at
the constitutional consequences of the so-called culture wars. The
last part considers the degree to which human rights and
constitutional fundamentals may be protected by both codified and
non-codified constitutions and whether, following Brexit, there is a
renewed case that fundamental constitutional values and rights may
only be successfully protected in the UK with a codified constitution.
The book will be of interest to academics, researchers and
policy-makers in the areas of Constitutional Law and Politics,
Comparative Law and Public Law.
