Return to The United Kingdom Confronts the European Convention on Human Rights "A timely publication as the United Kingdom prepares to undertake the large project of incorporating the ECHR [European Convention on Human Rights] into domestic law . . . provides a serious and well informed analysis." -- John F. McEldowney, University of Warwick Political Studies "a valuable resource to the scholar and the graudate student researching the current status of civil rights in the UK." British Politics Group Newsletter "In this well-documented, clearly written study, Jackson . . . shows how humanr rights principles, as contained in the European Convention, have brought 'some measure of accountability to those who exercise power and discretion in the United Kingdom' . . . The result is about as good a study as can be imagined, making a clear argument that a written charter of rights - exemplified by the European Convention - would be appropriate for incorporation into British domestic law. . . . Many international law and human rights specialists will find this important work valuable." Choice
