New Constitutionalism and World Order: A SSHRC Workshop

  • New Constitutionalism and World Order: A SSHRC Workshop

    May 26, 2011 – May 28, 2011

    This workshop will bring together some of Canada's and the world's leading political scientists, political economists, lawyers, and other social scientists to interrogate the nature, consequences, and implications of what we call the "New Constitutionalism" and its relationship to world order.

    Please note that this is a workshop where work in progress is being discussed rather than a conference. This workshop is not open to the public, however, the information that is available on this site allows you to acquaint yourself with the research. Only the participants can access the papers.  Our intention is to publish the papers in an edited monograph in due course and we will announce publication plans on this site.

    However, the public event which is related, is free and open to the public provided that you register on the web site.
