Constitutionalisms in the Global South
This course will study the practice of constitutionalisms in the Global South. ‘Constitutionalism’ will be understood in a thin sense, to include political precommitments to a wide variety of values (including democracy, liberalism, theocracy, and socialism) through a diverse range of constitutional actors (including courts, political parties, guarantor or ‘fourth branch’ bodies, the military, federal units, social movements, the political executive, and legislatures).
