Global Perspectives on Constitutional Law introduces readers to how various nations address contemporary constitutional issues. The book covers both structural aspects and individual rights, offering a curated selection of readings on significant constitutional topics across sixteen accessible chapters. Each chapter presents foreign case materials on specific constitutional themes, accompanied by notes and questions that illuminate comparisons between U.S. constitutional law and that of other countries. The modular design allows instructors to select topics for comparative study, making it an ideal supplement for courses incorporating comparative law. Topics include property rights, abortion rights, regulation of hate speech, campaign finance, and religious freedom. The volume aims to encourage students to reexamine and deepen their understanding of U.S. constitutional law in light of alternatives offered by other systems.
