Public order and freedom of protest are major issues in contemporary Britain, with much debate having been generated by unrest in Broadwater Farm, the miners' dispute and the general problems of policing demonstrations. The aim of the book is to convey an understanding of the law and practice of protest in the UK within the broader social and political context in which both law and practice are set. An introduction to the legal theory and theory of why people protest, case studies and analysis of appropriate legal regulations allow both theoretical and practical aspects of public order to be treated. The book introduces the reader to wider issues including the concepts of freedoms and rights within our constitution, the role of the judiciary in political issues and the effects of a precedent-based system. In the wake of the Public Order Act 1986, this text is aimed at students of law and the sociology of law, legal advisers, those in politics and social work and those studying the police.
