Finding the difference
Planning is a process in which the contents of planning is gradually refined. However, research in planning communication and perception is often conducted using contrasting scenarios, e.g. by comparing a with/without case.

Instead, and as a reflection of sequential and gradually evolving projects in planning pract…
What's Left of the Political Constitution?
This paper argues that we should move on from what has become a rather outdated contrast between the political constitution and the legal constitution. Taking as its focus the constitution of the United Kingdom, the paper analyzes the contemporary constitutional order as a mixed system of politics and law combined. It argues that such a mix may be a more compelling and attractive system than either the model of the political constitution or that …
The Role of the Courts in the Political Constitution
The article sketches the beginnings of a theory of what the courts should do in the political constitution. As such, it differs from most of the literature on political constitutionalism (which tends to say more about what courts should not do) and most of the literature about what courts should do in constitutional law (which tends to be framed in a legal constitutionalist perspective). First, arguments are presented about how a political consti…

Local Authorities and Libel Again
Unconventional Use of the Convention
In Derbyshire County Council v Times Newspapers Ltd,' the question of whether a local authority can sue for libel was raised in the Court of Appeal for the first time.The court considered two separate, but closely related, questions: first, whether a local authority is precluded from suing in libel by its status as a corporate body; and second, (if not) whether such an action is precluded by the right of freedom of expression provided for in Arti…
