Course Summary

These will include Brexit and devolution in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, the relationship between the media and the law, the intricacies of the English and Welsh legal system and individuals' legal rights in a range of domains. In addition, students will obtain an understanding of social problems and their relationship to crime and society, and how the criminal justice system operates.
