Focusing on the shift from dictatorships to democracies, the book argues for a unique approach to constitution making that emphasizes legal continuity while facilitating institutional change. The author, Arato, presents a compelling case for the effectiveness of negotiated transitions in establishing democratic institutions, contrasting it with radical revolutionary methods. This engaging exploration is particularly relevant for students and scholars in comparative politics, constitutional law, and East European studies.
