Constitutionalism faces a profound crisis that transcends national and regional boundaries. It is a global phenomenon characterized by a decline in democracy, weakening of the Rule of Law, erosion of political cohesion, questioning of human rights protection, struggles for international criminal law recognition, and potential loss of appeal in international trade. Institutional actors face scrutiny, established political parties are threatened by evolving popular movements, and the future trajectory of the constitutionalist project remains uncertain. While no one can predict the exact course of the crisis, this volume offers valuable insights by presenting predictions from nine eminent scholars in law and political science. Through a deliberative forum, it aims to anticipate developments, shape academic discourse on constitutionalism, and provide a platform for exploring the challenges and opportunities facing constitutionalism in the years to come.
