This landmark book provides the first systematic overview of the key scholarly contributions in an emerging field of research on constitutionalism: the sociology of constitutions. It presents chapters offering very different normative and methodological approaches to constitutions, ranging from analysis of national constitutional law, to research on transnational legal forms, to discussions of the constitutional impact of international human rights law.

The book makes an important contribution to a series of wider debates – spanning constitutional law, legal theory, comparative constitutionalism, sociology, and political science – about the changing nature of constitutionalism. Researchers and students in constitutional law will gain a comprehensive appreciation of a diverse range of distinctively sociological approaches to constitutional law and an in-depth understanding of distinctive sociological dimensions of constitutions. The book offers new insights into the sources of constitutional normativity in society and it proposes different sociological methods for addressing them.

  • Provides a cross-section of sociological current sociological research, including a diverse range of approaches to constitutional law and the importance for constitutions in contemporary sociology
  • Contributes significantly to a scholarly understanding of constitutional change, including the transformation of modern constitutionalism
  • Addresses constitutional norm formation in different societies at both global and transnational levels.
