Description

Explore the complex history of one of the most misunderstood tenets in common law. In this first dedicated monograph, Marie France-Fortin examines the phrase 'the king can do no wrong' to clarify its historical origins and varying meanings. This work traces the evolution of the concept through constitutional and public law to provide a clearer understanding of crown liability. By addressing the confusion surrounding this principle, the book explains how historical interpretations impact the ability of individuals to hold governmental officials or institutions accountable for harm. This text is an essential resource for understanding how the state's legal protections have shaped modern liability and the legal landscape of the common law tradition.
