Law and Rights: Global Perspectives on Constitutionalism and Governance
Edited by Penelope E. Andrews and Susan Bazilli
This book contributes to
current legal and political debates regarding the rule of law,
constitutionalism and rights enforcement. The authors explore the
context, substance and meaning of constitutionalism in comparative
perspective, as well as the influence of constitutionalism to national
and global democracy endeavors and the rule of law. They analyze and
interpret these issues from the perspectives of those who administer and
implement constitutional mandates, such as legislators and judges. But
they also examine constitutionalism from the perspectives of those who
especially stand to benefit from constitutional provisions, particularly
social and economic rights, and their enforcement. The authors
individually and collectively provide a rich global constitutional
tableau, with chapters covering the USA, South Africa, Australia, the
United Kingdom, and Canada. Vandeplaas
Publishing, 2008.
