New Faces in Public Law seminar

Dr Sarah Nason, University of Bangor, will discuss her new book, Reconstructing Judicial Review (Hart Publishing, 2016).

Discussant: Dr Paul Daly

The book offers an interpretation of judicial review “as being concerned with the advancement of justice and good governance, as opposed to being concerned primarily with ultra vires or common law constitutionalism. It is developed both from examining the functions and values that ought to be served by judicial review, and from analysis of empirical ‘social’ facts about judicial review primarily as experienced in the Administrative Court” in the light of analysis of case-law. The result is a new taxonomy of the grounds of judicial review.

Dr Nason is a Lecturer in Law at Bangor University.

This is the first seminar in an occasional series in which early-career public lawyers from round the UK are given a forum to discuss their work with an interested, informed group of scholars.
