'A more comprehensive or state-of-the-art advanced introduction to comparative judicial review is impossible to imagine. With authoritative but concise contributions from the leading comparative constitutionalists and political scientists in the field, this extraordinarily valuable volume takes an interdisciplinary, global, and transnational approach in addressing the key questions surrounding constitutional courts, and explores them with an unusual sensitivity to social and political context. A uniquely useful one-stop shop for students and scholars alike.'
--Stephen Gardbaum, University of California, Los Angeles, School of Law, US
'Our understanding of the institutions of constitutional/judicial review has deepened dramatically over the past generation. This collection of essays by some of the world's most sophisticated analysts of constitutional review provides an overview of what we know. It pushes the research agenda forward by using interesting and provocative theoretical perspectives - from law, political science, and normative political theory - on constitutional review to offer thoughtful new claims. Simultaneously a handbook and a valuable collection of new insights, Comparative Judicial Review deserves a place on the bookshelf of every serious scholar in the field.'
--Mark Tushnet, Harvard Law School, US
