Abstract

This paper discusses the early emergence and evolution of judicial control over administrative action in the context of English legal and political culture. It starts with a description of the English medieval procedural institutions, following on with the doctrinal context in which they operated, and the legal discussion on the relationship between administration and common law. This article gives an outline of the judicial review of English administration from the seventeenth to the mid-twentieth century, when this institution began a new chapter in its evolution. It attempts to present the complexity of the issues raised and the discussion that has taken place on the legitimacy of maintaining the distinctiveness of the English legal culture with respect to the models operating in Continental Europe.

Keywords:

rule of law; supremacy of parliament; English administrative law; common law; discretionary powers.
