CONSTITUTIONALISM IN CONTEXT II

The papers on this panel, drawn from the forthcoming volume Constitutionalism in Context (CUP 2018), offer contextual and interdisciplinary perspectives on issues and jurisdictions at the cutting edge of the study of constitutionalism. Each chapter introduces the reader to a jurisdiction in a context-rich way, then proceeds to explore an emerging issue at length in the context of the jurisdiction. The chapters on this panel cover the performance of constitutional review by institutions other than courts; the proliferation of government institutions that fall outside the traditional separation of powers framework and specialize in protecting constitutional democracy; the tension between constitutional autochthony and global norms; the stealth transformation of constitutional orders ; and the emergence of forms of judicial review that range from “soft“ to “super-hard“ and beyond.
