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 come from all regions of the world: Asia, Africa, Latin America, Europe and North America, producing a volume of truly international scope.
This volume contains a selection of essays drawn from a major scholarly project undertaken by the American Council of Learned Societies. The ACLS hosted symposia around the world in order to broaden and stimulate the field of comparative constitutionalism. That effort brought together scholars and political actors from many countries and every region of the world to discuss the experiences of constitutionalism. Twenty-five papers were selected to represent the range and depth of possibility for serious constitutional analysis. With the staggering changes in Eastern Europe and much of the rest of the world, constitutionalism has become one of the most important phenomena in the modern world. The essays in this book represent the very best work being done throughout the world on that important topic.
