{"product_id":"constitutional-comparison-franzois-venter-9789041115102","title":"Constitutional Comparison: Japan, Germany, Canada and South Africa as Constitutional States","description":"In our globalized era it has become impossible to deal effectively with constitutional law and related subjects such as fundamental rights, administrative law and political science without knowledge of foreign systems. A wealth of literature is available on practically all constitutional systems and the intricacies of their application. This, however, presents the constitutionalist with a formidable problem: Which foreign systems should I explore in order to make relevant comparisons, and how should I go about it? This book addresses the core problems of comparability and appropriate comparative methodology in the realm of contemporary constitutionalism. \u003cbr\u003eThe outcome is, however, not mere theorizing. Most of the text is devoted to an incisive application of the chosen comparative method to four geographically, historically, and culturally divergent, but thoroughly comparable, constitutional systems. In the course of the comparative exercise, contemporary constitutional dogma and constitutional mechanics are analyzed and explained, in many instances in their historical contexts, making the book itself a useful source of comparative and historical information.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e François Venter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9041115102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789041115102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill Nijhoff\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 6.42w x 0.65d","brand":"François Venter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46685565485311,"sku":"9789041115102","price":244.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ea45952d-58c0-4b82-a80c-7b9226f2b79a.jpg?v=1741726134","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/constitutional-comparison-franzois-venter-9789041115102","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
