• Sommario/riassunto: This title offers a comprehensive analysis of the impact that new and draft constitutions and amendments, such as those in Jordan, Morocco, Syria, Egypt, and Tunisia - have had on the transformative processes that drive constitutionalism in Arabi countries. This collection of essays, written by an expert tea of constitutional and comparative law scholars and practitioners, provides an overview of the recent constitutional experience of Arab countries, explores the potential and actual impact of Islam and Sharia on the notion of modern constitutionalism, and offers insight into the ways in which 'Western' ideals may be reconciled with the Islamic tradition.
