Contenuti
This workshop will simulate a constitution writing experience.
Testi/Bibliografia
There is one key text: Giovanni Sartori, Comparative Constitutional Engineering. This book will be used in addition to excerpts from actual constitutions. A fuller reading list will be posted soon.
Metodi didattici
We will meet as a group in two long sessions. The first session will explore the structure of a constitution with group discussion of readings and small group exercises. Students will then be given a description of a hypothetical country and be asked to draft an outline constitution. We will meet again as a group to discuss the drafts and debate their merits. Assessment will be based on class participation and the final draft document.
