Constitution making is a topic of increasing scholarly and practical interest. Focusing on a set of important case studies, yet also featuring classic articles on the subject, this volume is a critical assembly of theoretical literature. Ensuring wide geographic and historical coverage, and including an original introduction by the editors, this collection provides an essential overview of the myriad of circumstances in which constitutions can be made.

Arvustused

The spate of constitution making around the world in recent decades has encouraged a wealth of academic writing. This useful book brings together some of the most well-known pieces, in addition to a selection from earlier times. The collection covers many of the issues that arise in the course of making a new constitution and canvasses experiences with constitution making in states in different regions of the world including the Americas, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and South Asia. -- Cheryl Saunders, Melbourne Law School, Australia
