Hannah Quirk

The Rise and Fall of the Right of Silence

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The implications of curtailing the right to silence are explored here in detail with reference to the UK, but within a comparative context that examines how different 'types' of legal system regard the right to silence and the effects of constitutional protection. Within an international context in which the right to silence has long been regarded as sacrosanct, this book provides the first comprehensive, empirically-based analysis of the effects of curtailing this right.
