This panel will consider a range of under-explored questions relating to the doctrine of unconstitutional constitutional amendments. Are their alternatives to invalidating a validly passed constitutional amendment? Can constitutional design and democratic sequencing deal with the problem of anti-democratic, but popularly supported, forms of constitutional change? How do we resolve the tension between ‘eternity‘ clauses and the possibility of constitutional replacement? Does the newly-introduced doctrine have the potential to rebuild public confidence in the independence of the judiciary and challenge the validity of controversial constitutional changes in the context of Malaysia?
