Description

Constitutional courts claim to act “in the name of the people” and, moreover, are supposed to do so in the express terms of many constitutional texts. This raises the question of knowing whether they can be deemed as proper representatives of the people. This book addresses that question, offering different views both in favor and against the idea of political representation by the constitutional jurisdiction. The contributions are authored by prominent scholars with outstanding previous work on the themes of political representation and of constitutional review, namely Michel Troper, Pasquale Pasquino, Pierre Brunet, Miguel Nogueira de Brito, Dimitrios Kyritsis, Bojan Spaic, Pedro Lomba, and Pierre-Marie Raynal. Chapter “In search of what is common: political representation by the constitutional jurisdiction” is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0International License via link.springer.com.
