Overview

LAW, AUTHORITY AND THE CITIZENRY: EVOLUTION AND CHANGE IN OUR LEGAL SYSTEM looks at the following important legal issues in the 21st century: Do Liberty and Equality preclude one another? Why is Liberty the goal of so many? How do the concepts of Liberty and Equality relate to the concept of Justice? What place do Ethics hold in the scheme of Justice? Is Order essential in a Constitution of Liberty? Is Ethics essential in a Constitution of Liberty? Does the Authority coerce the Citizenry? Or does the Citizenry coerce the Authority? Does the source - and target - of Coercion shift over time between the Authority and the Citizenry? And if so, how and why does this shift occur? The evolution and change in our legal system -- in terms of power between the Authority and Citizenry -- is increasingly the key trend of our times. LAW, AUTHORITY AND THE CITIZENRY: EVOLUTION AND CHANGE IN OUR LEGAL SYSTEM considers all these issues, and looks forward with a legal and judicial approach to meet these questions and challenges. A Legal Pyramid Model, looking at the Ethical, Constitutional and Penalty aspects, is developed and considered in the light of the powers of the Authority and the Citizenry.
