This comprehensive book delves into the intricate realm of the royal prerogative, encompassing its theoretical foundations, historical evolution, and contemporary applications. It explores the historical trajectory of the royal prerogative, tracing its roots back to the era of imperial government and the subsequent structural transformations within the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth nations. While examining the specific powers vested in the royal prerogative, the book also delves into the question of the prerogative's justiciability and the mechanisms employed to exercise it. By exposing the core principles of constitutionality within the Westminster system of government, the book sheds light on the perceived black hole of unaccountable authority at the heart of the constitution.
The primary focus of this study lies in the constitutional development of the United Kingdom and the former dominions of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Employing a comparative and historical approach, the book employs detailed case studies, such as the dissolution of Parliament and the appointment and dismissal of Prime Ministers, to illustrate the evolution and significance of the royal prerogative.
This book is of immense interest to academics and researchers engaged in the fields of constitutional law and politics. It offers valuable insights into the historical, theoretical, and practical aspects of the royal prerogative, providing a comprehensive understanding of this important constitutional institution.
