Book Description
Reformas Constitucionales: Elaborar, romper y cambiar constituciones, ofrece una hoja de ruta para navegar en el universo intelectual de las reformas constitucionales, así como un plano para diseñar y mejorar las reglas de cambio constitucional. A la luz de docenas de constituciones de todas las regiones del mundo, este libro mezcla la teoría y la práctica con el fin de responder dos preguntas de la mayor importancia: ¿qué es una reforma? y ¿cómo deberían los arquitectos constitucionales estructurar los procedimientos de cambio constitucional? El primer interrogante es más importante ahora que en el pasado. Los reformadores explotan las reglas de reforma constitucional, ponen a prueba los límites jurídicos de la reforma, socavan las normas de gobernanza democrática y esquivan la constitución escrita para crear constituciones integralmente nuevas que se hacen pasar como simples reformas constitucionales ordinarias. La segunda pregunta es clave frente al desempeño y a la resiliencia de las constituciones. Los arqui-tectos constitucionales, hoy en día, no tienen casi que ningún recurso a la mano que pueda guiarlos al momento de construir las reglas de reforma constitucional, mientras que los académicos no tienen un pano-rama claro de la importancia de las reglas de reforma en el proyecto del constitucionalismo.

The Law and Legitimacy of Imposed Constitutions
Author: Richard Albert
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351038966
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
Constitutions are often seen as the product of the free will of a people exercising their constituent power. This, however, is not always the case, particularly when it comes to ‘imposed constitutions’. In recent years there has been renewed interest in the idea of imposition in constitutional design, but the literature does not yet provide a comprehensive resource to understand the meanings, causes and consequences of an imposed constitution. This volume examines the theoretical and practical questions emerging from what scholars have described as an imposed constitution. A diverse group of contributors interrogates the theory, forms and applications of imposed constitutions with the aim of refining our understanding of this variation on constitution-making. Divided into three parts, this book first considers the conceptualization of imposed constitutions, suggesting definitions, or corrections to the definition, of what exactly an imposed constitution is. The contributors then go on to explore the various ways in which constitutions are, and can be, imposed. The collection concludes by considering imposed constitutions that are currently in place in a number of polities worldwide, problematizing the consequences their imposition has caused. Cases are drawn from a broad range of countries with examples at both the national and supranational level. This book addresses some of the most important issues discussed in contemporary constitutional law: the relationship between constituent and constituted power, the source of constitutional legitimacy, the challenge of foreign and expert intervention and the role of comparative constitutional studies in constitution-making. The volume will be a valuable resource for those interested in the phenomenon of imposed constitutionalism as well as anyone interested in the current trends in the study of comparative constitutional law.

Constitutionalism Under Extreme Conditions
Author: Richard Albert
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030490009
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 445
Book Description
This book examines the problem of constitutional change in times of crisis. Divided into five main parts, it both explores and interrogates how public law manages change in periods of extraordinary pressure on the constitution. In Part I, “Emergency, Exception and Normalcy,” the contributors discuss the practices and methods that could be used to help legitimize the use of emergency powers without compromising the constitutional principles that were created during a period of normalcy. In Part II, “Terrorism and Warfare,” the contributors assess how constitutions are interpreted during times of war, focusing on the tension between individual rights and safety. Part III, “Public Health, Financial and Economic Crises,” considers how constitutions change in response to crises that are neither political in the conventional sense nor violent, which also complicates how we evaluate constitutional resilience in times of stress. Part IV, “Constitutionalism for Divided Societies,” then investigates the pressure on constitutions designed to govern diverse, multi-national populations, and how constitutional structures can facilitate stability and balance in these states. Part V, titled “Constitution-Making and Constitutional Change,” highlights how constitutions are transformed or created anew during periods of tension. The book concludes with a rich contextual discussion of the pressing challenges facing constitutions in moments of extreme pressure. Chapter “Public Health Emergencies and Constitutionalism Before COVID-19: Between the National and the International” is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
