Civil Society, Constitution, and Legitimacy

Více o knize

Focusing on the transition from dictatorships to democracies, this work presents a compelling argument for a negotiated, civil society-oriented approach to constitution-making. It emphasizes how this method enables radical institutional change while maintaining legal continuity, thus facilitating the rapid establishment of viable democratic institutions. The author contrasts this approach with radical revolutionary change, making the book particularly engaging for students and scholars in comparative politics, constitutional law, and East European studies.
