Description: Although the Global South represents 'most of the world' in terms of constitutions and population, it is underrepresented in comparative constitutional discourse. This book fills the gap in this scholarship by tackling the most important aspects of comparative law from the Southern perspective.

Review Quotes: "This must-read work celebrates, and confronts the advent of the Global South's 'turn' in comparative constitutional law and jurisprudence, and bristles with rich distinctions between studies for, with, and from global South perspectives, and constitutionalism as sites of access, denial, and struggle. The global drift towards authoritarian constitutionalism here insightfully interrogates legal orientalism, epistemic colonization, and delineation of our new uncommon futures." -- Upendra Baxi, Emeritus Professor of Law, University of Warwick and Delhi
