Human Rights The 1998 Act and the European Convention

This is a two-part commentary on the Act which incorporates the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) into UK domestic law. The first part of the book examines the ECHR in context and the situation in the UK prior to incorporation, and a brief historical overview is given. The second part examines in detail each section of the new law in annotated statute style, assessing its likely importance on UK law.
