/li>
In Lord Sumption and Human Rights leading public law scholars reflect on
the nature and limits of the judicial role and its implications for human
rights protection and democracy. The starting point for this reflection is
Lord Sumption’s lecture, ‘The Limits of the Law’, and, spurred on by this,
the contributors discuss questions including the scope and legitimacy of
judicial law-making, the interpretation of the European Convention on
Human Rights, and the continuing significance and legitimacy, or
otherwise, of the European Court of Human Rights. Lord Sumption ends the
volume with a substantial paper engaging with the responses to his lecture.
Nicholas Barber, Richard Elkins and Paul Yowell are all Associate Professors of Law at the University of Oxford.
