The promulgation of the Fifth French Republic Constitution in 1958
marked the end of a complex constitutional history that has since
1789 seen more than twenty constitutions and five Republics.
Lasting now for more than fifty years, the Fifth Republic
Constitution has proven to be the right settlement for the French
people; a consensual text. However, while offering the appearance
of stability, the Fifth French Republic Constitution has often been
reconsidered and changed, not least in the year of its fiftieth
anniversary, when the Constitution was 'modernised'. These dynamics
of the Fifth Republic Constitution are neither a recent matter nor
entirely the result of the successive constitutional amendments.
Instead, the history of the Constitution has involved the
resurgence of repressed archaic elements from the ancient regime,
while the social, economic and environmental contexts have
penetrated not only the text itself but more extensively its
spirit, and behind it, the philosophy and our perception of the
Republic. In Dynamics in the French Constitution, David Marrani
questions the foundations of the French Fifth Republic. In using
specific themes, current and traditional debates, contemporary and
archaic factors, that have enlightened the road of long lasting
Republic, the book explores some of the changes of the last fifty
years and the tensions that are present within the constitutional
text. In combining theoretical concepts of constitutional law with
key contemporary and historical developments, such as the European
integration, the response to environmental challenges, the practice
of human rights and the pillars supporting French republicanism,
this book offers varied and creative tools for a better
understanding of the Republic of today.
