Law Matters – in Scotland Parts 1 and 2
Tutor: Elizabeth McGillivray
Law matters to all of us; it shapes our communities and our lives but do we understand the law of the land we live in?
This course will look firstly at the Rule of Law and its role in society before focussing on Scots Law, its history and development. The class will then look at the differences between common law and statute; civil and criminal law. After that we will focus on two specific areas of law with which most people will come into contact – the Law of Succession and the ownership of land, dealing particularly with the way Scotland’s 400 year old public Register has changed in the past 40 years.
