Principles of French Constitutional Law offers a concise and
accessible account of the key principles and rules of
constitutional law in the French legal system. With its particular
historical background since the chaotic post-revolutionary period
and current specific mechanisms, French constitutional law offers a
fascinating object of study for anyone interested in public law and
the broader area of comparative constitutional studies. This
textbook will equip students with an understanding of the current
Fifth Republic and how constitutional rules are adopted and
applied, and affect other areas of law and politics. It offers a
critical account of the 1958 Constitution's past, present and
future by placing it in its political and socio-historical contexts
and critically assessing contemporary developments and
constitutional reforms. Given the growing expansion of this branch
of law in the French legal system (in particular the case law on
the priority preliminary rulings on the issue of constitutionality)
and the growing relevance of comparative legal studies, the book
will make a significant contribution to the knowledge exchange in
teaching and learning. Principles of French Constitutional Law will
be structured around the following main themes: (i) The bases of
French constitutional law with theoretical developments about key
notions of constitutional law such as the state, the constitution,
as well as historical background of French constitutional law (ii)
The Fifth Republic of France with coverage of the main powers,
namely executive, legislative and judiciary with particular
emphasis on constitutional review and justice and (iii) A practical
part on legal education dealing with the emergence of French
constitutional law as an academic subject of research and teaching,
as well as with the method of teaching as illustrated by typical
legal exercises.
