Constitutional Sentiments

The Constitution was written to shape human behaviour and affairs, and it does so by appealing to people's hearts, not only their minds. This title presents an interdisciplinary analysis that focuses on the emotions that underlie constitutional law, with many cogent examples.

Reviews

"Both the cultural-historical and the strictly legal erudition of the author are impressive and the depth and orginality of his intuitions are very often admirable... 'Constitutional Sentiments' is a well written scholarly argument, which reads pleasurably, flowing often like a good novel" – Bogdan Iancu, Law & Politics Book Review
