Review Quotes:
"A welcome contribution to the field of public law and legal theory. It is a rich and varied collection of essays that puts together a plurality of theories - from legal positivism to interpretivism and material constitutionalism - and methods - from empirical socio-legal studies to model-theoretic analysis. Such an impressive panoply of conceptual tools offered by so many distinguished experts was long needed." --Massimo Fichera, University of Turku, Finland, Jurisprudence
"This collection, one of the first of its kind, is a valuable addition to existing scholarship in constitutional law and constitutional theory. It has the potential to uncover novel ways of approaching the discipline. Its reflections on methodology are beneficial not only for constitutional theorists, but constitutional and administrative lawyers more generally and anyone studying the methodology of legal philosophy." --Law and Philosophy
