Comparing Constitutions

Comparing Consitutions is a fully revised and updated new edition of the classic text Five Constitutions, previously published in 1979. It contains the texts of four major national constitutions - American, French, German, and Russian - together with major extracts from the Treaties estabishing the European Community and the European Union, including Maastricht, and an updated chapter of the late Professor Finer's central introduction to the British Constitutions. Chapters on comparative constitutions and both analytical and alphabetical indexes make this an invaluable book for all those involved in the study of modern constitutions.
