• Resumen

  • Richard Albert is the contemporary scholar who has done the most to place constitutional amendment in the global academic spotlight and invite (and actively seek the means to generate) a broad, inclusive, and refreshing discussion on their many dimensions. Where before there were only arid philosophical analyses of rules of change and the theory of legal systems, skinny references of constitutional lawyers to particular amendment clauses or episodes, and an emerging body of literature on constitutional longevity and change in whose context the singularity of amendment was not entirely visible, we now have a rich and eye-opening scene.
