Structure of the Volume
The volume includes a brief Introduction, 19 jurisdiction-based chapters, and a Conclusion.
The 19 jurisdiction-based chapters address the common questions above, therefore have a similar structure. These chapters are organised in a modular fashion to explain the reasons of constitution-making, the process of constitutionmaking, substantive contents of the constitution adopted, and the implementation of the constitution. The volume seeks to combine the richness of in-depth contextual analysis of each of the case studies while retaining a common comparative framework.
The Conclusion, written by a co-editor of this volume, surveys the 19 jurisdiction-based chapters and provides comparative analysis on the waves, diffusion, and models of constitution-making in Asia.
