The Global South and Comparative Constitutional Law EPUB
Edited by Philipp Dann, Michael Riegner, Maxim Bonnemann
Part of the Oxford Comparative Constitutionalism series
EPUB
Description
This volume makes a timely intervention into a field which is marked by a shift from unipolar to multipolar order and a pluralization of constitutional law.
It addresses the theoretical and epistemic foundations of Southern constitutionalism and discusses its distinctive themes, such as transformative constitutionalism, inequality, access to justice, and authoritarian legality.
This title has three goals. First, to pluralize the conversation around constitutionallaw.
While most scholarship focuses on liberal forms of Western constitutions, this book attempts to take comparative law's promise to cover all major legal systems of the world seriously; second, to reflect critically on the epistemic framework and the distribution of epistemic powers in the scholarlycommunity of comparative constitutional law; third, to reflect on - and where necessary, test - the notion of the Global South in comparative constitutional law.
This book breaks down the theories, themes, and global picture of comparative constitutionalism in the Global South.
What emerges is a rich tapestry of constitutional experiences that pluralizes comparative constitutional law as both a discipline and a field of knowledge.
