    Parliamentary Actors and Influence in the Making of British Law

Drawing on the largest study of its kind for more than forty years, Meg Russell and Daniel Gover cast new light on ... Read more

  • The English Parliaments of Henry VII 1485-1504

    by P.R. Cavill ...
    Series series Oxford Historical Monographs
    P.R. Cavill offers a major reinterpretation of early Tudor constitutional history. In the grand 'Whig' tradition, the parliaments of Henry VII were a disappointing retreat from the onward march towards parliamentary democracy. The king was at best indifferent and at worst hostile to parliament; its meetings were cowed and quiescent, subservient to the royal will. Yet little research has tested ... Read more

  • Sovereignty and Liberty

    A Study of the Foundations of Power

    by Amnon Lev ...
    The attitude we take to power is almost invariably one of distrust, never more so than when it claims to be sovereign. And yet, we have always been drawn to sovereignty. Out of fear or fascination, we accepted that it was a condition of our liberty; that to assert ourselves as free, we would have to work not against but through sovereign power. This book retraces the history of the implication of ... Read more

Systems theory illuminates both the ... Read more
