Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the origins and development of the law concerning the status of alienage in England and its historical context. The author examines the concept of "natural-born" subjects, whether by birth or by naturalization, and their rights and responsibilities under English law. The author posits that even in cases of high treason, a person's natural-born status and the rights and responsibilities associated with it could not be revoked unless an act of parliament was passed to do so. The author furthermore explores the idea of a person's allegiance to the monarchy, whether the loss of such allegiance would result in a loss of status as a natural-born subject, and whether such allegiance could be revoked by any authority outside of that of the monarch. The author concludes that, absent an act of parliament, the status of a natural-born subject is immutable and cannot be revoked by treason, attainder, or any authority outside of the Crown.
