Informations provenant du Partage des connaissances anglais. Modifiez pour passer à votre langue. Finally, any text on the history of the British constitution must be to a considerable extent a history of the British monarchy, central as the monarchy is to our constitutional system. This book reached its final form during the Golden Jubilee year of the present Queen and is published as the 50th anniversary approaches of her coronation in 1953. I can therefore do no better than to dedicate it, by gracious permission, to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.  | |

Introduction -- This book has grown out of several years' experience of teaching Constitutional and Administrative Law to LLB students and to graduates in other disciplines taking the Postgraduate Diploma in Law. Britain's unique and unwritten constitution is the product of a process of evolution over many centuries and, unlike most others, is not wholly or even predominantly the child of an identifiable event or period of time. | |
