| Description: |
Stanley Katz, Douglas Greenberg and a group of international scholars examine the state of constitutions around the world. The essays break new ground in an emerging field, discussing the transition from authoritarian to democratic regimes, examining the obstacles to democracy and comparing the world-wide experiences of constitutionalism. The papers are drawn from a series of conferences sponsored by the American Council of Learned Societies. The contributors comefrom all regions of the world: Asia, Africa, Latin America, Europe and North America, producing a volume of truly international scope. |
| Synopsis: |
The political changes which have occurred in the last three years have been phenomenal--the dissolving of the former Soviet Union, the impending union of Western Europe, and the evolution of democracy in Eastern Europe. What changes have occurred in the legal structure of these countries? How have their constitutions been affected by these developments? Stanley Katz, Douglas Greenberg, and other scholars and politicians from numerous countries discuss in this work the experiences of constitutionalism. Previously, little work has been done in this field, but now Constitutionalism and Democracy represents the range and depth for serious constitutional analysis. Discussing concrete issues such as human rights, nationalism, and pluralism, this volume will be essential in understanding the phenomenon of constitutionalism in various parts of the world. |
