Painted at once as repulsive and attractive, abject and resilient, singular and exemplary, Haiti has long been framed discursively by an extraordinary epistemological ambivalence. The nation has served at once as cautionary tale, model for humanitarian aid and development projects, and point of origin for general theorizing of the so-called Third World. What to make of this dialectic of exemplarity and alterity? How to pull apart this multivalent narrative so as to examine its constituent parts? The contributors to The Haiti Exception take up these and other such questions from a variety of methodological and disciplinary perspectives, among which Africana Studies, anthrohistory, art history, Black Studies, Caribbean Studies, education, ethnology, Jewish Studies, literary studies, performance studies, and urban studies. As they revise and interrogate their respective praxes, they accept the challenge of thinking about the particular stakes of and motivations for their own commitment to Haiti. Engaging in the decidedly risky anthropological practice of reflexivity, the scholars, activists and other social actors gathered here consider their own often fraught role in constructing Haiti in and as narrative. 410 0$aFrancophone postcolonial studies ;$vnew ser., v. 7. 606 $aEthnology$zHaiti 607 $aHaiti$xCivilization 607 $aHaiti$xHistoriography 607 $aHaiti$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEthnology 676 $a970.980 702 $aBenedicty-Kokken$b Alessandra$f1973- 702 $aGlover$b Kaiama L.$f1972- 702 $aSchuller$b Mark$f1973- 702 $aByron$b Jhon Picard 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466058803321 996 $aThe Haiti exception$92038143 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03812nam 2200733 a 450 001 9910780600903321 005 20230607214453.0 010 $a9786155211225 010 $a978-6-15521-122-5 010 $a615-5211-22-1 010 $a1-281-37680-9 010 $a9786611376802 010 $a0-585-46539-8 024 7 $a10.1515/9786155211225 035 $a(CKB)111087028333684 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000203551 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11181031 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000203551 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10173966 035 $a(PQKB)11367295 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3137241 035 $a(OCoLC)52880230 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse48215 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3137241 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10173753 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL137680 035 $a(OCoLC)922997940 035 $a(DE-B1597)633296 035 $a(DE-B1597)9786155211225 035 $a(EXLCZ)99111087028333684 100 $a20020517d2002 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aMission accomplished$b[electronic resource] $eon founding constitutional adjudication in Central Europe /$fby Radoslav Procha?zka 210 $aBudapest ;$aNew York $cCentral European University Press$d2002 215 $axiv, 358 p 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 $a963-9241-51-2 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p.

The creation of constitutional courts was one of the major milestones in the re-creation of the democratic system in these countries. In Europe constitutional courts exert much of the functions of the Supreme Court of the US. However, the immediate western European samples showed marked differences, which is why besides similarities, the theory and practice of constitutional law show differences in these four countries. Procházka analyses and explains these similarities and differences.  Mission Accomplished contributes to the literature on comparative constitutional law by offering insights into the constitutional discourses that go beyond the discussion of notorious cases and events in these four countries. Procházka argues that the various historical, cultural, socio-psychological, political and institutional contexts have translated into different modes of constitutional adjudication and interpretation. 606 $aConstitutional courts$zEurope, Eastern 606 $aConstitutional law$zEurope, Eastern 606 $aJudicial review$zEurope, Eastern 606 $aPolitical questions and judicial power$zEurope, Eastern 606 $aPost-communism$zEurope, Eastern 610 $aConstitutional courts, Constitutional law, Czechia, Hungary, Judicial review, Poland, Slovakia. 615 0$aConstitutional courts 615 0$aConstitutional law 615 0$aJudicial review 615 0$aPolitical questions and judicial power 615 0$aPost-communism 676 $a347.47/012 700 $aProcha?zka$b Radoslav$01500680 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780600903321 996 $aMission accomplished$93727468 997 $aUNINA
