Description
The Double-Facing Constitution by Jacco Bomhoff, David Dyzenhaus and Thomas Poole explores how constitutional orders interact with their external environments. This collection challenges traditional views that see constitutions as isolated entities, instead arguing that they are permeable membranes influenced by the world outside. The book delves into the theoretical foundations of this perspective, drawing on the work of Kelsen, Hobbes, Locke and Rousseau, among others. It also examines the practical implications for areas such as migration law, conflict of laws, and foreign relations law. By considering how constitutional orders engage with their surroundings, this collection offers a fresh understanding of the complex relationships between domestic and international law. This book is an important contribution to the study of constitutional theory and its relevance in contemporary legal debates.
