Sinopsis

The first translation into English of this major work of German legal scholarship, considered the standard text in the field
Offers insight into the development of German public law, its hierarchies, structures, and terminology, from the medieval period onwards
Links the dramatic history of post-WWI politics, the Weimar Republic, the Nazi-Regime, and the post-WWII settlement to developments in the academic literature on public law



German public law has been taught in universities since the early 17th century and continues to this day to be a dominant subject in German legal culture, especially in its modern incarnations of constitutional and administrative law, and European and international law. Michael Stolleis´s Public Law in Germany: A Historical Introduction from the 16th to the 21st Century, expertly translated by Thomas Dunlap, provides an account of the fundamental developments in public law that situates current debates in the German Federal Constitutional Court as well as the role of the nation-state in Europe more broadly. It further examines the role of fundamental rights through the lens of Germany´s special administrative courts and discusses their important role in the advancement of German law.

Written with students in mind, the book distils Stolleis´s masterful four-volume History of Public Law in Germany, the third volume of which (1914-1945) was published by Oxford University Press in 2004. It is an invaluable companion to the understanding of German public law more generally.
