LAA123 Public Law

This module provides an introduction to public law in the UK. It begins with in-depth study of the UK constitution, with particular focus on how political power is distributed in the constitution and the main principles which govern its use. It proceeds to focus on administrative law, and especially the question of how the law constrains executive power through judicial review.
LAA335 Jurisprudence

Jurisprudence, or legal theory, is the study of the nature of law in general. In this module, we will not (at least not intentionally) learn anything new about the concrete rules, doctrines, or procedures of the law of England & Wales or any other jurisdiction. Instead, we will think about what makes law law. What are the features or characteristics that law always possesses, wherever and whenever we find it? How is it that we can distinguish things which count as `law¿ from other things which are `not law¿ ¿ things like commands issued an armed thug, the rules of a game, or morality? Does law have any intrinsic moral value or purpose and, if so, what is it? These questions all require us to think carefully about the defining features of law. From Aristotle to Bentham; from H.L.A. Hart to Dworkin, in this module we will study some of the most influential answers to these and other fundamental jurisprudential questions.
LANM09 Law and the State

This module examines the relationship between the individual and the state, focusing on the key principles of public and criminal law. The module offers an introduction to the constitutional and administrative law of the United Kingdom, with an examination of the legal relationships between state institutions and between the state and the individual. The module will provide an introduction to public law in the UK, with particular focus on the role of the law in constraining political power. The modules also examines the basic principles and fundamental concepts of criminal law, including homicide offences, non-fatal offences against the person, property offence, sexual offences and public order offences.
LAQ223 Public Law

This module provides an introduction to public law in the UK. It begins with in-depth study of the UK constitution, with particular focus on how political power is distributed in the constitution and the main principles which govern its use. It proceeds to focus on administrative law, and especially the question of how the law constrains executive power through judicial review.
LAQ225 Skills for the study of Law

This module provides an introduction for new law students to the skills that they will need to be successful in their studies. This includes academic skills such as planning for study, essay writing, problem solving, referencing and reflecting on study practice. The course also covers key legal skills such as legal research and reading and primary and secondary sources. It is designed to allow students to reflect and build upon the skills that they will develop throughout the year in their substantive subjects, e.g., contract, tort and public law.
