"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 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 successfullyprotected 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"-- Provided by publisher.
