Decolonisation and Democracy: Constitutional Dreaming, Revolution, or Threat
Constitutional Repair: A Comparative Theory
We are increasingly confronted by a pressing question: how can a constitutional democracy be repaired after being deeply degraded, but not ended, during a period of antidemocratic government? This study responds to the transnational challenge of constitutional repair by elaborating a novel syncretic theory of repair. Integrating diverse theoretical frameworks and comparative case-study analysis, the Article pursues four normative arguments: (i) a…

“Good” Court-Packing? The Paradoxes of Constitutional Repair in Contexts of Democratic Decay
U.S. debates on reforming the Supreme Court, including controversial arguments to break the norm against court-packing to repair the democratic system, have generally focused on historical precedents and the domestic system, with scant comparative analysis. However, the U.S. debate raises fundamental questions for comparative constitutional lawyers regarding the paradoxes of constitutional repair in contexts of democratic decay, framed here as a …
Compreendendo a decadência democrática multidimensional: Lições decorrentes da ascensão de Jair Bolsonaro no Brasil
Em 28 de outubro de 2018, o candidato de extrema-direita Jair Bolsonaro venceu as eleições presidenciais no Brasil com 55% dos votos. Esse resultado tem sido visto por muitos analistas como mais um exemplo da ascensão global de líderes populistas autoritários, colocando Bolsonaro ao lado de Viktor Orbán, da Hungria, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, da Turquia, Narendra Modi, da Índia, ou Donald Trump, dos EUA - de fato, Bolsonaro foi apelidado de "Trump dos…
Understanding Multi-directional Democratic Decay: Lessons from the Rise of Bolsonaro in Brazil
On 28 October 2018 the far-right candidate Jair Bolsonaro won the presidential elections in Brazil with 55% of the vote. This result has been viewed by many as yet another instance of the global rise of authoritarian populist leaders, grouping Bolsonaro alongside the likes of Hungary’s Viktor Orbán, Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, India’s Narendra Modi, or Donald Trump in the USA – indeed, Bolsonaro has been dubbed the “Trump of the Tropics.” The …
Democratic Decay: Conceptualising an Emerging Research Field
The African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights: Mapping resistance against a young court
At first glance, it appears that the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights – the first pan-continental court of the African Union (AU) for human rights protection – epitomises the advances made by international courts in Africa in the past decade. Since its first judgment in 2009, the Court has taken a robust approach to its mandate and its docket is growing apace. However, a closer look at the overall context in which the Court operates rev…

The alchemists: Courts as democracy-builders in contemporary thought
Can courts really ‘build’ democracy in a state emerging from undemocratic rule? In contemporary thought, courts are perceived as central components in any political settlement aimed at achieving a functioning democratic order in a previously authoritarian state (this piece, unlike others in the special collection, does not specifically address post-conflict contexts). The past four decades have witnessed an increasing tendency in post-authoritari…
La masculinité dans un monde féminisé: Le genre, l'âge et les organisations sociales
Au cours des dernières décennies du xx e siècle, les recherches sur le genre et le vieillissement se sont, dans une large mesure, concentrées sur l’expérience vécue des femmes âgées. Dans cet article, nous revisitons les notions de vieillissement et de genre, en nous centrant sur l’expérience différentielle des hommes au cours de leur vieillesse, c’est-à-dire en comparant leurs réseaux sociaux à ceux des femmes âgées. Nous étudions en particulier…
