Comparative Constitutionalism in South Asia
The collection of essays studies as to what extent the South Asian experience of comparative law offers insight into broader trends in constitutionalism and how familiarity with the South Asian experience can aid the field of general comparative constitutional law. It throws light on the degree of constitutional and legal kinship among the nation of South Asia even though the legal communities of these nations have always looked to the West for modelling their constitutions and for jurisprudential innovation. It focuses on the mutual borrowing, citing and dialogue across the constitutional jurisdictions of South Asia. The diverse essays have a moral core that is concerned with securing justice and resolving intractable conflict. They pay tribute to the ideas of Neelan Tiruchelvam and Upendra Baxi in particular.
