Produktbeschreibung
The Oxford Handbook of Constituent Power maps and systematically examines the revival of constituent power. In recent decades, scholars, as well as political actors, have rediscovered the category and used it in ever new ways,
challenging traditional accounts of its scope and function. But while new and creative applications may have inspired political developments and led to innovation in political and constitutional theory, the proliferation of accounts of constituent power has brought with it some concept stretching.
This Handbook takes inventory of the state of the art, critically examines new ideas, and puts them on a systematic footing. In sixty chapters, it explores new paths in the intellectual history of constituent power (Part I); systematically develops the idea of constituent power in its relation to neighbouring concepts such as sovereignty (Part II); examines constituent power's role and meaning in the context of different types of polities, including international institutions such as the European Union and the United Nations (Part III); investigates the plural manifestations of constituent power in terms of practices and agents, ranging from revolutionary violence to citizens' assemblies (Part IV); and tackles new challenges and developments such as the prefigurative politics of protest movements or ascriptions of constituent power to nature (Part V).
