It focuses in particular on the experiences of India and Germany as examples of post-war and post-colonial constitutional democracies whose trajectories illustrate democratic transitions and transformative constitutionalism. While transformative constitutionalism has come to be associated specifically with the post-apartheid experience in South Africa, this book uses the transformative as an analytical framework to transcend the dichotomy of west and east and explore how temporally coincident constitutions have sought to install constitutional democracies by breaking with the past. While the constitution-making processes in the two countries were specific to their political contexts, the constitutional promises and futures converged. In this context, the book explores the themes of Constitutionalism, Nationalism, Secularism, Sovereignty and Rule of Law, Freedoms and Rights, to investigate how the contestations over democratic transitions and democratic futures have unfolded in the two democracies. It offers readers valuable insights into how the normative frameworks of constitutional democracy take concrete form at specific sites of democratic and constitutional imagination in Dalit and Islamic writings, as well as the relationship between state and religion in the writings of public intellectuals, political and legal philosophers. The book also focuses on specific sites of contestation in democracies including the relationship between sovereignty and citizenship in post-colonial India, free speech and sedition in liberal democracies, questions of land rights in connection with economic and political changes in contemporary contexts, and the rights of indigenous communities with regard to international conventions and domestic law. Given its scope, it will be of interest to students and scholars of political theory, political philosophy, comparati ve constitutionalism, law and human rights. 000937238 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000937238 650_0 $$aConstitutional law$$zIndia. 000937238 650_0 $$aConstitutional law$$zGermany. 000937238 651_0 $$aIndia$$xPolitics and government. 000937238 651_0 $$aGermany$$xPolitics and government. 000937238 7001_ $$aRoy, Anupama. 000937238 7001_ $$aBecker, Michael. 000937238 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aRoy, Anupama$$tDimensions of Constitutional Democracy : India and Germany$$dSingapore : Springer,c2020$$z9789811538988 000937238 852__ $$bebk 000937238 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-15-3899-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000937238 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:937238$$pGLOBAL_SET 000937238 980__ $$aEBOOK 000937238 980__ $$aBIB 000937238 982__ $$aEbook 000937238 983__ $$aOnline 000937238 994__ $$a92$$bISE
