Editorial Reviews
Review
'Constituting Democracy is essential reading for anyone who is interested in comparative constitutionalism, the politics of constitutional adjudication, and the role of the Constitutional Court in South Africa's democratic transition. It is an important attempt to rethink the relationship between democracy and constitutionalism, as well as between the global and the local. It is original, engaging, perceptive and well written.' Journal of Public Law
Review
"Klug's book combines his knowledge as both an internal player and external scholar and the product is a nicely crafted examination that itself incorporates the global tenets of the academic community of rigorous scholarship and analysis with journalistic first hand investigation of the process. Any scholar of democratization processes, constitutionalism and the rule of law broadly will find this book of interest. Klug presents a compelling case for his argument that states no longer exist in isolation of the broader international community, but can successfully adapt global universals into local contexts."
