Overview

THE JUDGMENT OF KINGDOMS AND NATIONS What rights do you actually have - and who decides? In 1688, England underwent a transformation that changed the course of Western civilisation. The divine right of kings was abolished. Rule of law was established. And for the first time, it was declared that no one - not even those who govern - stands above the law. Written by one of the most influential legal minds behind the Glorious Revolution, this landmark text laid the constitutional foundations that still underpin English law today. It is the forgotten document that explains where your rights and liberties actually come from. In an age when those foundations are once again being tested, this is essential reading for everyone who wants to understand the true basis of their freedom. Who this book is for: Readers interested in English constitutional and legal history Students of law, politics, and philosophy Anyone concerned about the erosion of civil liberties today Historians and researchers of the Glorious Revolution A timeless document. A timely reminder.
