Book excerpt: The constitutional question is of paramount importance in the political and nationalist agenda of late twentieth-century Europe. Professor van Caenegem's new book addresses fundamental questions of constitutional organisation: democracy versus autocracy, unitary versus federal organisation, pluralism versus intolerance, by analysing different models of constitutional government through an historical perspective. The approach is chronological: constitutionalism is explained as the result of many centuries of trial and error through a narrative which begins in the early Middle Ages and concludes with contemporary debates, focusing on Europe, the United States, and the Soviet Union. Special attention is devoted to the rise of the rule of law, and of constitutional, parliamentary, and federal forms of government. The epilogue discusses the future of liberal democracy as a universal model.

Book excerpt: This innovative textbook provides an introduction into comparative constitutional law to undergraduate and graduate students. Combining a clear and practical explanation of the topics with scientific knowledge, the textbook analyzes the origins and the development of constitutional law in the Western world, as well as the structure and transformations of constitutional law, up to the present day. It also examines the theoretical roots and the historical premises of constitutionalism, and explores the foundation of constitutional law in Western countries since the Age of Revolutions and the 19th Century, underlining the different constitutional traditions. Furthermore, the textbook describes the transformations of constitutional law brought about by the transition toward pluralistic societies, and analyzes the political and legal features of constitutional democracies, taking into consideration the lessons learned in several constitutional environments in contemporary states. It also discusses the global expansion of the pattern of Western constitutionalism and the contemporary challenges in the age of globalization, focusing on the development of a European constitutional space.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Local Constitutional History of the United States, Vol. 1 Since the appearance of Freeman's Comparative Politics the theory of an English local constitution whose origin is coeval with the origin of the race has become familiar to every scholar. In that work the real extent and the real limitations of our common Aryan heritage were first disclosed. Already an extensive monographic literature, every day increasing, bears witness to the high value set upon the study of local institutions. But it is a noteworthy fact that local constitutional history, as a unity deserving of sustained and comprehensive treatment, has as yet found few expounders. Bishop Stubbs, it is true, in his account of the higher organism has assigned to the lower its proper space and rank. George Waitz has rendered a similar service for Germany; and the evolution of the mark, village, and other communities on the Continent, has been described at great length by George L.v. Maurer. But the treatise of Dr. Gneist is the only work of first rate importance which has yet been devoted exclusively to the history of local self-government in England. This book, however, is a practical demonstration that the history of the local constitution, for weight and dignity, may rightly take its place on a level with that of the state itself. No compendious treatise on the development of local institutions in the United States has yet appeared. Indeed, until recently, the attempt to produce such a work, if not premature, would at least have proved extremely difficult.
