Editorial Reviews

Review

"Stephen Gardbaum's The New Commonwealth Model of Constitutionalism: Theory and Practice is one of the most important books about comparative judicial review and constitutional design published in recent years."
Ran Hirschl, International Journal of Constitutional Law

"[This book] is a must-read in the growing literature on comparative constitutional law and deserves a broad international audience."
Sujit Choudhry, International Journal of Constitutional Law

"[A]n impressive piece of constitutional scholarship, offering a cogent, sophisticated account of the third paradigm."
Scott Stephenson, Modern Law Review

"In this excellent comparative study of rights protection, Stephen Gardbaum argues that a "new model of constitutionalism" has emerged from Commonwealth countries … This is a book that deserves a very wide readership. It is written and structured with beautiful clarity. … [It is] a valuable contribution to the literature and should become a key point of reference from which the theory and practice of rights protection and constitutionalism might continue to be understood."
Lawrence McNamara, International and Comparative Law Quarterly

"[A]n impressive and valuable contribution that pushes the boundaries of the debate … [and] invites scholars to do no less than reassess how they conceive the very function of a bill of rights."
Janet Hiebert, Public Law

Book Description

Stephen Gardbaum proposes and examines a new way of protecting rights in a democracy.
