Comparative Constitutional Law (University Casebook Series)

Book Description
Jackson & Tushnet’s Comparative Constitutional Law reflects the increased interest in its subject matter brought on by the transformation of constitutional systems in South Africa, eastern and central Europe, as well as increased activity of constitutional courts around the world. The materials in this book concentrate on the U.S., Canada, and the nations of western and eastern Europe, with some material drawing on constitutional experience in China, India, Israel, Japan, and elsewhere.
