The Scottish Legal System (Seventh edition)

A course on the Scottish legal system is a compulsory part of undergraduate degrees in Scots Law.

The Scottish Legal System sets out to present the legal system and law of Scotland as unique and constantly changing and places the Scottish legal system in its broader political and social contexts.

This well-established text provides an up-to-date treatment of all significant developments affecting the Scottish legal system.

It covers not only the central aspects of the system, such as the courts and the legal profession, but also the common areas with constitutional law and jurisprudence.

The seventh edition will include new case law on devolution and human rights issues in Scotland.

It will also cover the changes to the sources of law of the European Union and the principles of application of EU law following Brexit. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Scots Law Student online service.
