The English Constitution is a book written by Emile Boutmy, a French political scientist, in 1891. The book is a comprehensive analysis of the political system of England, tracing its evolution from the medieval period to the Victorian era. Boutmy examines the various components of the English Constitution, including the monarchy, the House of Lords, the House of Commons, and the judiciary. He also discusses the role of political parties, the electoral system, and the relationship between the central government and local authorities. Boutmy's analysis is marked by a deep appreciation for the historical context in which the English Constitution developed. He argues that the Constitution is the product of a long process of trial and error, and that its enduring strength lies in its ability to adapt to changing circumstances. At the same time, Boutmy is critical of certain aspects of the English system, particularly the lack of a written constitution and the concentration of power in the hands of the aristocracy. The English Constitution has been widely influential in the field of political science, and is considered a classic work on the subject. It is particularly notable for its comparative approach, which contrasts the English system with those of other European countries. The book remains relevant today as a source of insight into the workings of one of the world's oldest and most stable democracies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
