Book Description
En 1998, la Cour suprême du Canada rendait sa décision au sujet du Renvoi relatif à la sécession du Québec, dans laquelle elle se prononçait sur certains des enjeux les plus fondamentaux de notre système de gouvernement constitutionnel. La Cour a reconnu quatre principes sous-jacents de l’ordre politico-constitutionnel canadien, lesquels inspirent et nourrissent le texte écrit de la constitution. Piliers de l’architecture institutionnelle, ces principes sont le fédéralisme, la démocratie, le constitutionnalisme, ainsi que la protection des minorités. Ceux-ci non seulement représentent des valeurs fondamentales portées par la constitution canadienne, mais sont aussi et surtout des postulats normatifs nécessaires pour penser l’aménagement de la diversité profonde dans les sociétés complexes. Fort de contributions provenant à la fois du droit et de la science politique, cet ouvrage offre une réflexion tant rétrospective que prospective quant à la valeur de ces principes pour ré-imaginer le Canada sur des bases plus hospitalières à l’égard de tous les partenaires de l’association politique.

The Legitimacy Clash
Author: Alain-G Gagnon
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1487547579
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
In the coming decade, we may see the advent of multinational federalism on an international scale. As great powers and international organizations become increasingly uncomfortable with the creation of new states, multinational federalism is now an important avenue to explore, and in recent decades, the experiences of Canada and Quebec have had a key influence on the approaches taken to manage national and community diversity around the world. Drawing on comparative scholarship and several key case studies (including Scotland and the United Kingdom, Catalonia and Spain, and the Quebec-Canada dynamic, along with relations between Indigenous peoples and various levels of government), The Legitimacy Clash takes a fresh look at the relationship between majorities and minorities while exploring theoretical advances in both federal studies and contemporary nationalisms. Alain-G. Gagnon critically examines the prospects and potential for a multinational federal state, specifically for nations seeking affirmation in a hostile context. The Legitimacy Clash reflects on the importance of legitimacy over legality in assessing the conflicts of claims.

Constitutional Crossroads
Author: Kate Puddister
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774867949
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 521
Book Description
Four decades have passed since the adoption of the Constitution Act, 1982. Now it is time to assess its legacy. Constitutional Crossroads brings together an impressive assembly of established and rising stars of political science and law, who not only provide a robust account of the 1982 constitutional reform but also analyze the ensuing scholarship that has shaped our understanding of the Constitution. Contributors bypass historical description to offer reflective assessments of issues such as sovereignty, identity and pluralism, the scope and limits of rights, competing constitutional visions, the relationship between the state and Indigenous peoples, and the nature and methods of constitutional change.

Constitutional Law and Politics of Secession
Author: Antoni Abat i Ninet
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000919315
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
This collection presents an analysis of the concept of secession and its constitutional accommodation alongside an assessment of the effects of secession in constitutional and international law. The work proposes a new approach and insights into the existing literature that fill a gap from multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary perspectives. The book approaches the topics of secession, constitutionalism, and their relationship from both theoretical and empirical perspectives, including the analysis of particular secessionist examples, such as Catalonia, the Basque Country, Tigray, the Palestinian minority in Israel, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the Mapuche Nation, from a comparative constitutional perspective. Elucidating these issues from different methodological and conceptual perspectives produces novelties in the scientific and constitutional debate. The interplay between constitutions, constitutional law, and secession is indeed explored from philosophical, socio-legal, but also from strict constitutional law outlooks. Written by constitutional and public international law experts, the book will be of interest to students, academics, and researchers working in the areas of constitutional law, legal theory, theory of the state, philosophy of law, and political science.
