This Module, the first of two Public Law Modules, considers fundamental questions of constitutionalism common to both UK and EU legal orders. You will examine the UK Governmental and European Union (EU) institutions, the separation of power between them, and the modes of exercise of power in the UK and EU. This includes the differing legal competences of the domestic and European actors, and the reasons for those differences, as well as the interaction between the two regimes. You will examine the importance of values such as the rule of law, separation of powers and conferral of powers in shaping the understanding of constitutionalism in both legal orders. An important aspect of this module will be to study the theory, enforcement and application of rights in the UK and EU legal order. In particular, you will study the common law protection of rights in the UK and the impact of the Human Rights Act 1998 in implementing the human rights guarantees of the European Convention of Human Rights. You will also appreciate and examine the importance of rights in the EU legal system, including the growing significance of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights and the function of economic rights in the internal market. Finally, you will be introduced to the rules of administrative law which prevail in each jurisdiction and the conceptions of administrative justice which stand behind those.

This module, the second in Public Law, focuses upon the rules of administrative law which prevail in each jurisdiction and the conceptions of administrative justice. It introduces students to the relevant legal and non-legal frameworks, providing the necessary tools to undertake a critical consideration of these frameworks' relative success in protecting and promoting ideals of administrative justice and, through that, constitutionalism and the rule of law.

What do we know about public opinion and behaviour? And how do we know about it? This module provides an in-depth examination of at least three topics in the broad field of public opinion. Each topic will be led by an expert in the field. For each topic, you will learn about the latest research, the latest methods used to study it, and then implement the methods yourself in computer labs, using specialist software. You will leave the module with a high-level understanding of each topic as well as generalisable skills in quantitative analysis and coding.

The module presumes background knowledge from PAIR2018/3027 but no background or experience in coding or statistics. The module is about application and use rather than comprehensive statistical understanding.
