It covers the English parliament from its origins, the pre-1707 Scottish parliament and the pre-1800 Irish parliament, the parliament of Great Britain from 1707 and the parliament of the United Kingdom from 1801, together with sections on the post-devolution parliaments and assemblies set up in the 1990s and on parliaments in the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands and the Irish Republic. It considers all aspects of parliament as an institution: membership of both the Lords and the Commons; constituencies, elections and franchises; where the Lords and the Commons met; how business was arranged and managed, including Speakers, the use of committees, the development of parties, lobbying and voting procedures; legal cases in the House of Lords; official recording of and reporting of business and debates; the conflict and balance of power between the two Houses; and, the position of the monarch in parliament. Each section contains a chronology listing key events, suggestions for further reading and 'inserts' - short anecdotes or accounts of particular figures or episodes which provide lively illustrations of parliament at work in different periods."--GoogleBook Výrazy tezauru národní parlament * zákonodárný sbor * Spojené království * Anglie * Skotsko * Irsko * ostrov Man * Normanské ostrovy * dějiny Klasifikační znaky 0421 - Parlament ISBN 978-1-84383-503-5 Copy count 1, currently available 1 Document kind Sborníky
