Books by Tony (Professor of Public Law Prosser

This book examines the constitutional framework for management of the economy in the UK, including the effects of the 2008 financial crisis. It assesses the extent to which legal principles limit the policy choices available to government and the extent to which they permit a coherent approach to economic management across government

The use of regulation to control behaviour is a defining feature of modern government, penetrating a wide range of social and economic life. This book offers a detailed study of how regulation works in practice, its legal framework, and the arguments surrounding its economic and social impact.

This book examines the relationship between law and public services. Prosser argues that there are important limits to the applicability of competition law in this context. He illustrates his theme by discussing the law in the UK, France and Italy, and at the EU level, and provides a case study considering public service broadcasting.
