Book excerpt: Constitutional Idolatry and Democracy investigates the increasingly important subject of constitutional idolatry and its effects on democracy. Focussed around whether the UK should draft a single written constitution, it suggests that constitutions have been drastically and persistently over-sold throughout the years, and that their wider importance and effects are not nearly as significant as constitutional advocates maintain. Chapters analyse whether written constitutions can educate the citizenry, invigorate voter turnout, or deliver ‘We the People’ sovereignty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The British constitution is regarded as unique among the constitutions of the world. What are the main characteristics of Britain's peculiar constitutional arrangements? How has the British constitution altered in response to the changing nature of its state - from England, to Britain, to the United Kingdom? What impact has the UK's developing relations with the European Union caused? These are some of the questions that Martin Loughlin addresses in this Very Short Introduction. As a constitution, it is one that has grown organically in response to changes in the economic, political, and social environment, and which is not contained in a single authoritative text. By considering the nature and authority of the current British constitution, and placing it in the context of others, Loughlin considers how the traditional idea of a constitution came to be retained, what problems have been generated as a result of adapting a traditional approach in a modern political world, looking at what the future prospects for the British constitution are.

Book Synopsis The Invisible Constitution in Comparative Perspective by : Rosalind Dixon
Download or read book The Invisible Constitution in Comparative Perspective written by Rosalind Dixon and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-11-08 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Constitutions worldwide inevitably have 'invisible' features: they have silences and lacunae, unwritten or conventional underpinnings, and social and political dimensions not apparent to certain observers. The Invisible Constitution in Comparative Perspective helps us understand these dimensions to contemporary constitutions, and their role in the interpretation, legitimacy and stability of different constitutional systems. This volume provides a nuanced theoretical discussion of the idea of 'invisibility' in a constitutional context, and its relationship to more traditional understandings of written versus unwritten constitutionalism. Containing a rich array of case studies, including discussions of constitutional practice in Australia, Canada, China, Germany, Hong Kong, Israel, Italy, Indonesia, Ireland and Malaysia, this book will look at how this aspect of 'invisible constitutions' is manifested across different jurisdictions.

Book Synopsis A New Magna Carta? by : Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Political and Constitutional Reform Committee
Download or read book A New Magna Carta? written by Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Political and Constitutional Reform Committee and published by . This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Magna Carta has its 800th Anniversary next year, and the Political and Constitutional Reform Committee, in this report, launches a major consultation into the shape of our democracy today. The Committee has been working on a major project with King's College London to develop several different visions of what a democratic settlement for the UK could look like. The research lays out three different models - including one fully fleshed out, complete constitution - and sets out some of the arguments for and against codifying the constitution. The UK has a mass of common law, Acts of Parliament, and European treaty obligations, and a number of important but uncertain and unwritten 'conventions' that govern administration, but the full picture is unclear and uncertain to electors in our democracy. It has become too easy for governments to implement political and constitutional reforms to suit their own political convenience. A written constitution would entrench requirements for popular and parliamentary consent and give primacy to the sovereignty of the people. The case against a written constitution is that it is unnecessary, undesirable and un-British. The UK's unwritten constitution is evolutionary and flexible in nature, enabling practical problems to be resolved as they arise and individual reforms made. A written constitution could create more litigation in the courts and politicise the judiciary. There is no real popular support or demand for a written constitution. Given these polarised views, the Committee is launching the consultation to get input from all quarters on the possibilities.
