The Rule Of Law In The United Kingdom - A Comprehensive Analysis

A Comprehensive Analysis of Rule of Law

The rule of law is one of the principal features of a modern democracy. According to a constitutional lawyer in the United Kingdom, the term refers to a primary sense of principles and values which promote the stability and coherence of legal order (Allan, 2001). Most specifically speaking, the concept refers to the governance of law rather than individual preferences or influence. This principle is a substantial enhancement to the validity and integrity of the legal system, which is one of the essential features of a successful democracy. The concept holds that everyone is subject to the law, including wealthy individuals, politicians, and even the country’s top leaders (Moghaddam, 2016). The principle is seen in governments around the world in a variety of extents and contributes substantially to the success or failure of a government. Overall, the rule of law is one of the foundational elements of social governments since it is the fundamental purpose of law and order in the first place. While this characteristic of law is essential, it is much easier to discuss than practice the principle. With this in mind, there can exist a difference between the ideal of the rule of law and the actual practice of such. The legal system of the United Kingdom is no exception.

Leicester Student Law Review Vol. 12

Leicester Student Law Review, 2023

The Leicester Student Law Review is an academic journal which has been published in Leicester, United Kingdom for the last eight years to allow students to contribute to the field of legal academic writing. Over the years, the Law Review has allowed students to participate in legal discourse on a variety of topics, challenging the status quo. I am extremely pleased to present this year's journal to the public. The articles contained were carefully selected for the insight that they provide on a variety of topics. This year's journal includes papers on the lack of diversity in the judiciary, gender inequality, ongoing challenges in the European Union, failings of the criminal justice system and medically assisted suicide in Canada. All of the papers are written by current students of law at the University of Leicester. I am extremely grateful to our talented team of editors who worked tirelessly to ensure that the papers presented to you are of the highest quality. I also owe a great debt of gratitude to our Managing Editor, Rachel Hodgett, who helped lead with strength and grace. For every challenge the Law Review faced, Rachel always remained focused on finding solutions and a way forward. I would also like to thank former Editor-in-Chief Alanis Ortiz for helping to provide guidance and mentorship throughout the process. Lastly, I'd like to thank Maryam Ahmad, Hinda Abdi, Adrianna Strzepka and Reda Hussain for all their work behind the scenes. While we have tried our hardest to present a journal of the highest quality, please forgive any errors in grammar or in judgment made along the way. Angel Panag Editor-in-Chief, 2022-2023

To my parents Mr and Mrs Ndebele, my siblings Sharon, Shandy and Arnold, I have no words to express my gratitude. Thank you for always supporting and nurturing my dreams. Special thanks to Lloyd Toendepi, my friend, hype man and brilliant legal mind who continuously motivated me throughout this research.

The jurisdiction in a small Kentish town: between norm and practice

Governar a Cidade na Europa Medieval / The Governance of Medieval European Towns, ed. Amélia Aguiar Andrade, Gonçalo Melo da Silva. Lisboa: IEM - Instituto de Estudos Medievais / Câmara Municipal de Castelo de Vide, 2021

Faversham, a small Kentish town, was in a peculiar situation during the Middle Ages, being both a seigneurial town with a monastic lord (Faversham abbey) and a member of the privileged Cinque Ports confederation. This circumstance created a complicated situation in terms of urban jurisdiction, as there were several courts with overlapping jurisdictions-seigneurial, manorial, borough, and that of the Cinque Ports. Several disputes occurred over the medieval period, with townspeople having to defend their rights not only against their monastic lord but the Warden of the Cinque Ports as well. This article explores the situation using such legal sources as charters, custumals, and town books to see the regulation of these coexisting jurisdictions in town and compare it with the evidence of surviving court records. Extensive borough archives of the town make it possible. The influence and example of other members of the Cinque Ports are also taken under consideration.
