The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia : History, Principle and Interpretation, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia examines the body of constitutional jurisprudence in an original and rigorous yet accessible way.

It begins by exploring the historical and intellectual context of ideas surrounding the Constitution's inception, and closely examines its text, structure, principles and purposes in that light.

The book then unpacks and critically analyses the High Court's interpretation of the Constitution in a manner that follows the Constitution's own logic and method of organisation.

Each topic is defined through detailed reference to the existing case law, which is set out historically to facilitate an appreciation of the progressive development of constitutional doctrine since the Constitution came into force in 1901.

The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia provides an engaging and distinctive treatment of this fundamental area of law.

It is an excellent book for anyone seeking to understand the significance and interpretation of the Constitution.
