Constitution, Constitutionalism and Constitutional Morality

It is with great pleasure that I present this edited volume titled “Constitution,
Constitutionalism and Constitutional Morality.” The book delves into the
essential pillars of constitutional thought and governance, focusing on the
meaning and significance of the Constitution, the principles of
constitutionalism, and the concept of constitutional morality in shaping modern
democracies. At a time when legal and political debates surrounding
governance and rights are increasingly relevant, this book seeks to contribute
meaningfully to those discussions by providing a platform for diverse scholarly
voices.
The Constitution is more than just a legal document, it represents the
foundation of a nation’s identity and values. Constitutionalism, in turn, ensures
that this document serves as a guide for fair and just governance. Constitutional
morality adds a layer of ethical responsibility, reminding us that legal
frameworks must also reflect the moral aspirations of the society they govern.
Together, these themes are not only essential for legal scholars but for all those
who care about the functioning of democratic systems.
This volume is enriched by the contributions of scholars and practitioners who
have examined the subject from various perspectives. Their insights collectively
provide a broad and nuanced understanding of how constitutions function in
theory and practice, how constitutionalism evolves in different contexts, and
how constitutional morality acts as a safeguard for democratic values. The
interdisciplinary nature of this book allows readers to engage with the
Constitution not only from a legal viewpoint but from political, philosophical,
and ethical dimensions as well.
