Lectures on Comparative Constitutionalism -- 比较立宪主义; East China University of Political Science and Law; Lectures, Resources and Materials



I am delighted to post more information on my Lectures on Comparative Constitutionalism -- 比较立宪主义. They may be accessed by scanning the QR Code above and by the link HERE.

The lectures are being delivered at East China University of Political Science and Law, Shanghai, China during the course of November and December 2019. The materials currently include PowerPoints, background information and resources. I will add the transcriptions of the Remarks for each lecture as they become available. The best part of the experience for me was the ability to be liberated from the constraints of seriously engaging with constitutional orders outside of the ideologies of the prior era and its assumptions of the existence of an ideal type of constitution.  More interesting still has been the ability to rethink constitutionalism in terms of data driven governance--that is, constitutionalism as a rating system (e.g., hidden ideology in the assumptions about data harvesting and analytics) with significant restrictions and privileges attached (via normative algorithm) depending on the place of the constitution within the rating spectrum.  Stay tuned!
