Constitutions are made in almost all transformation of regimes.
What are the dangers and the hopes associated with such a process?
What can make constitution-making legitimate? The Adventures of the
Constituent Power explores the democratic methods by which
political communities make their basic law, arguing that the most
advanced method developed from Spain and South Africa. The first
part of this book focuses on history of the idea of
constitution-making, before and during the democratic revolutions
of the eighteenth century. The second part traces the notion of the
constituent power in recent regime transitions that were
consciously post-revolutionary, from Spain to South Africa. With
the return of revolutions or revolutionary patterns of
constitution-making, the book examines the use and potential
failure of the new ideas available. The third part then proceeds to
consider the type of constitution that is likely to emerge from the
post-sovereign process.
