Images of a Constitution

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

First published in 1989, Conklin first tells us what a constitution is not: it is not a text, a compendium of judicial and legislative decisions interpreting a text, a set of doctrines, moral/political values, customs,a priori conceptions. A constitution is an image which exists through the legal consciousness of a community.
