Constitutions are a country’s most important legal document,
laying the foundation not just for politics, but for all other areas of law.
They allocate power among different levels and branches of government, record
and promote a society’s shared values, and protect the rights of citizens.
Countries around the world are adopting written constitutions, though what
defines a constitution is evolving to include a variety of sources beyond
canonical texts, such as political conventions, statutes, judicial decisions
and administrative law norms.
This cosmopolitan monograph series provides a forum for the
best and most original scholarship in constitutional and administrative law,
with each book offering an international, comparative, or multi-jurisdictional
approach to this complex and fascinating field of research.
