Albert Venn Dicey
Albert Venn Dicey (1835–1922) was a British jurist and constitutional theorist known for his influential works on constitutional law. He is most famous for his book "Introduction to the Study of the Law of the Constitution" (1885), where he outlined key principles like parliamentary sovereignty and the rule of law. Dicey argued that the British Parliament holds supreme authority and that no person or body can override its laws. His writings continue to shape discussions on constitutional theory, particularly in the United Kingdom.
