Twenty-First Century Perspectives on the Scholarship of AV Dicey: The Enduring Legacy of a Victorian Constitutionalist

Catherine Marshall and Céline Roynier (eds)

CY Cergy Paris Université, France

This book reassesses AV Dicey's legacy in political and legal thought through the reflections of leading scholars who consider his importance not only in today's British constitutional and legal culture but also in other foreign constitutional cultures.

Every student in law and in politics, every law faculty and most legal practitioners in the world are aware of who Albert Venn Dicey (1835–1922) was and what he wrote. Yet, this fame does not mean that Dicey's legacy is not controversial and debated in the present world. This book considers why Dicey's late Victorian constitutional and political thinking is still alive.
