  • Substantive principles of public law: what happened after 1987?

    MAR 1.04 Marshall Building, 44 Lincoln's Inn Fields, LSE, London
    Public Lectures 

    The lecture examines how public law has evolved since Lester and Jowell’s 1987 article challenged the view that it concerns only procedure, not substance. It explores developments in principles such as legitimate expectations, human rights, equality, policy conformity, and the shift toward proportionality and reasonableness in judicial review.
