The Double-Facing Constitution: Legal Externalities and the Reshaping of Constitutional Order
June 22–23, 2017
Constitutional orders may be said to have both an inner and outer membrane: they face outwards as well as inwards, and these two faces are related. A staple of constitutional literature in the medieval and early-modern period, this idea of the double-facing constitution was subsequently largely lost from juridical discourse. The workshop investigates this two-faced nature of constitutional legal thought and practice.
The workshop is a joint event of the Department of Law at London School of Econmics, the University of Toronto and the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin.
