Latin American Constitutions provides a comprehensive historical
study of constitutionalism in Latin America from the independence
period to the present, focusing on the Constitution of Cadiz, a
foundational document in Latin American constitutionalism. Although
drafted in Spain, it was applied in many regions of Latin America,
and deputies from America formed a significant part of the drafting
body. The politicization of constitutionalism reflected in Latin
America's first moments proved to be a lasting legacy evident in
the legal and constitutional world of the region today: many of
Latin America's present challenges to establishing effective
constitutionalism can be traced to the debates, ideas, structures,
and assumptions of this text. This book explores the region's
attempts to create effective constitutional texts and regimes in
light of an established practice of linking constitutions to
political goals and places important constitutional thinkers and
regional constitutions, such as the Mexican Constitution of 1917,
into their legal and historical context.
