Legal Barbarians
This innovative study presents a genealogy of modern comparative law, examining both theory and practice around the world.
Constitutionalism in the Americas
Constitutionalism in the Americas unites the work of leading scholars of constitutional law, comparative law and Latin American and U.S. constitutional law to provide a critical and provocative look at the state of constitutional law across the Americas today. The diverse chapters employ a variety of methodologies – empirical, historical, philosophical and textual analysis – in the effort to provide a comprehensive look at a generation of constitutional change across two continents.
Constitutionalism of the Global South
The Indian Supreme Court, the South African Constitutional Court and the Colombian Constitutional Court have been among the most important and creative courts in the Global South. In Asia, Africa and Latin America, they are seen as activist tribunals that have contributed (or attempted to contribute) to the structural transformation of the public and private spheres of their countries. The cases issued by these courts are creating a constitutionalism of the Global South. This book addresses in a direct and detailed way the jurisprudence of these Courts on three key topics: access to justice, cultural diversity and socioeconomic rights. This volume is a valuable contribution to the discussion about the contours and structure of contemporary constitutionalism. It makes explicit that this discussion has interlocutors both in the Global South and Global North while showing the common discourse between them and the differences on how they interpret and solve key constitutional problems.
Los bárbaros jurídicos: Identidad, derecho comparado moderno y el Sur global
En este libro, Daniel Bonilla Maldonado explora de manera heterodoxa y novedosa las conexiones entre las narrativas que crea el derecho comparado moderno y la identidad del sujeto jurídico moderno. Para cumplir con este objetivo, el libro examina, primero, la relación entre identidad, derecho y narrativa. En segundo lugar, explora los momentos de emergencia y transformación del derecho comparado moderno: los estudios comparados instrumentales, los estudios legislativos comparados y el derecho comparado como disciplina autónoma. Finalmente, analiza las perspectivas teóricas que cuestionan la narrativa creada por el derecho comparado moderno: las Aproximaciones al Derecho Internacional desde el Tercer Mundo (TWAIL), los estudios poscoloniales del derecho y el derecho comparado crítico.
Geopolítica del conocimiento jurídico
El análisis de la economía política del conocimiento jurídico pone en evidencia que el conocimiento jurídico es una forma de poder que tiene dinámicas propias e importantes implicaciones prácticas. El conjunto de normas y actividades que componen esta economía política determina cuestiones como cuáles son los objetos de estudio que se consideran valiosos en las facultades de derecho; cuáles son los contextos de producción de conocimiento jurídico que se imaginan ricos o pobres; cuál es la dirección que toma el intercambio de productos jurídicos en un mundo globalizado, y cómo se describen los aportes que hacen los países del Norte y del Sur globales a las tradiciones dominantes.

Negative Comparative Law
A critical manifesto making the case for a radically alternative approach to the theory and practice of comparative law.
Indigenous Peoples and the Future of Federalism
As a settler state, Canada’s claims to sovereign control over territory are contested by Indigenous claims to land and to self-determination. Indigenous Peoples and the Future of Federalism presents legal analyses that explore forms of federalism and their potential to include multiple and divided sovereignties. This collection aims to advance reconciliation with Indigenous peoples in Canada and elsewhere by developing jurisprudence on the possibilities for a nation-to-nation relationship between Indigenous nations and Crown sovereignty. Contributors use legal creativity to explore how federalism can be structured to include the constitutional jurisdiction of Indigenous nations. Several ch...
