Sinopsis


Comprises the full text of Dicey´s largely unpublished lectures on comparative constitutionalism
Includes an introduction by Dr Allison setting the lectures in their historical context and showing the implications of Dicey´s comparative work for constitutionalism




This book provides a complement to Dicey´s The Law of the Constitution. These largely unpublished comparative constitutional lectures were written for different versions of a comparative constitutional book that Dicey began but did not finish prior to his death in 1922. The lectures were a pioneering venture into comparative constitutionalism and reveal an approach to legal education broader than Dicey is widely understood to have taken. Topics discussed include English, French, American, and Prussian constitutionalism; the separation of powers; representative government; and federalism. The volume begins with an editorial introduction examining the implications of these comparative lectures and Dicey´s early foray into comparative constitutionalism for his general constitutional thought, and the kinds of response it has elicited.
