Informationen zum Autor Christoph Bezemek is Professor of Law at the University of Graz, Austria. Klappentext Constitutionalism is in crisis. And the crisis unfolds not only on a national or a regional level. It is a global phenomenon: Democracy is no longer on the rise, the Rule of Law appears weakened, political cohesion seems to erode. Human Rights Protection finds itself questioned, International Criminal Law struggles for broad recognition, international trade may have lost some of its appeal. Institutional actors find their authority questioned, established political parties are threatened by ever-changing popular movements. But where to does the charted road lead? How will the "Crisis of Constitutionalism" unfold in the years to come? Nobody knows, of course. But at the same time: Nobody is too keen to make an educated guess either. This volume remedies that. By giving nine eminent scholars in law and political science the opportunity to make their predictions, where the constitutionalist project will stand ten years from now, it creates a forum of deliberation that will not only aim at anticipating the developments in question but at the same time shape academic discourse on constitutionalism alongside it. Vorwort Nine eminent law and political science academics come together for the first in a trilogy of collections to make their predictions on how constitutionalism will change over coming decades. The contributors will reconvene in 2030 and 2040 to reflect and consider how the issues have evolved and whether their predictions have been realised. Zusammenfassung Constitutionalism is in crisis.
