Reviews

Practitioners as well as academics involved in international law will appreciate and no doubt profit from this erudite and closely argued examination of the complexities of margin of appreciation. Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond Green Chambers


Written with great clarity and cogently argued, Legg's book succinctly takes stock of the existing arguments for and against deference in judicial review beyond the state and provides ample empirical material from the three tribunals case-law to substantiate his claims. It will be an indispensable work for all students and scholars dealing with issues of deference and its operationalisation in international judicial practice, and can only be warmly recommended. Andreas von Staden, Human Rights Law Review Practitioners as well as academics involved in international law will appreciate and no doubt profit from this erudite and closely argued examination of the complexities of margin of appreciation. Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond Green Chambers
