Constitutionalism and Democracy
ISBN: 9780754624684 / Angielski / Twarda / 622 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Meanwhile, constitutionalists themselves differ on how far any constitution derives its authority from, and should itself be subject to democratic endorsement and interpretation. They also dispute whether constitutions should refer solely to...

The Logic of Constitutional Rights
ISBN: 9780754625384 / Angielski / Twarda / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Individual rights raise endless conflicts and spawn intricate standards and policies.

Examples are drawn from the world's oldest and most intricate body of law on civil rights and liberties: the case law of the United States Supreme Court. Yet the model is designed to...

One aspect of this system is supervision by central governments over activities of subnational units. Such supervision is of a particular significance where the central government is where important laws and policies are made and the others are...
