In Asia, Africa and Latin America, they are seen as activist tribunals that have contributed (or attempted to contribute) to the structural transformation of the public and private spheres of their countries. The cases issued by these courts are creating a constitutionalism of the Global South. This book addresses in a direct and detailed way the jurisprudence of these Courts on three key topics: access to justice, cultural diversity and socioeconomic rights. This volume is a valuable contribution to the discussion about the contours and structure of contemporary constitutionalism. It makes explicit that this discussion has interlocutors both in the Global South and Global North while showing the common discourse between them and the differences on how they interpret and solve key constitutional problems. 606 $aPolitical questions and judicial power$zSouth Africa 606 $aPolitical questions and judicial power$zIndia 606 $aPolitical questions and judicial power$zColombia 615 0$aPolitical questions and judicial power 615 0$aPolitical questions and judicial power 615 0$aPolitical questions and judicial power 676 $a340/.115091724 702 $aBonilla Maldonado$b Daniel 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462876603321 996 $aConstitutionalism of the global South$92482141 997 $aUNINA
