'Constituting Democracy is essential reading for anyone who is interested in comparative constitutionalism, the politics of constitutional adjudication, and the role of the Constitutional Court in South Africa's democratic transition. It is an important attempt to rethink the relationship between democracy and constitutionalism, as well as between the global and the local. It is original, engaging, perceptive and well written.'
