Summary
Writing Constitutions intends to serve as a practical manual for those writing constitutions or interested in their design. It is the first systematic and universal approach to coherently capture concepts and contents of a modern constitution. Volume I breaks each constitutional mechanism into components and offers detailed designs to draft a constitutional clause. This provides lawmakers with the necessary toolkit for writing constitutions and empowers them to strengthen democracies. Writing Constitutions comes in three volumes: - Volume I: Institutions - Volume II: Fundamental Rights - Volume III: Constitutional Principles.
