Beschreibung
The author skillfully dissects the mechanisms by which constitutions can be used to legitimize autocratic power, emphasizing the paradox of how legal structures intended to protect democracy can be wielded as instruments of oppression. Engaging with critical themes, Tushnet challenges readers to reconsider the role of law in shaping political realities.
Translated into Turkish by Hasan Erikli and Izzet Eroglu, this work invites a broader audience to engage with its pressing ideas. With its accessible yet rigorous approach, it serves as a crucial resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the intersections of law, politics, and society in the context of authoritarianism.
