Constitutional Democracy in Comparative Perspective: An Introduction -- Nationalism and Constitutional Democracy -- The Paper-Thin Covering of Constitutional Democracy -- Ernst-Wolfgang Bockenford and the Notion of the State's Open Neutrality -- Constitutional Democracy and Indian Secularism: Considerations from the Perspective of Democratic Antinomies -- Mainstream Indian Nationalisms and its Critique: A Minority and Islamic Perspective -- Maulana Azad and an Islamic Justification of the Indian Constitution -- Law and Constitutional Democracy: Meanings, Iterations and Consequences -- Sovereignty and Constitutional Democracy: The 'Princely' Subject in the Indian Constitution -- Laws and Rights: Indigenous Women's Human Rights to Resources -- The Land Question and Constitutional Democracy.

This book examines a selection of themes that have become salient in contemporary debates on constitutional democracies. 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, comparative constitutionalism, law and human rights.
