Parliamentary Sovereignty | Michael Gordon sku-499831599

Michael Gordon's Parliamentary Sovereignty in the UK Constitution: Process, Politics and Democracy is a paperback in the Hart Studies in Constitutional Law series. The book examines challenges to the doctrine of parliamentary sovereignty, including changes in the UK Constitution, reduced academic support for the doctrine and a more expansive view of the judicial role.

It argues that a renewed manner and form theory best explains parliamentary sovereignty in contemporary UK constitutional practice and has previously unrecognised normative appeal. Gordon connects that account to the doctrine's democratic value and considers how Parliament could revitalise the UK's political constitution by legislating about the legislative process.
