In person icon Constitutionalisation of Politics in Constitutional Courts

Abstract

Constitutional courts remain principal actors in the constitutionalization processes, both because of their powers and visibility as constitutional veto players and because of the authority accorded to their pronouncements of the questions of constitutional interpretation. In fact, other actors in the process of constitutional interpretation tend to orient themselves in relation to the positions taken by the constitutional courts, either seeking to shape its agenda or influence its judgments, or to counteract the court's line of interpretation. The panelists will address the external influences on the constitutional court decisions (both formal, such as amici briefs, and informal, including manifold forms of signaling and pressure) and the impact of the constitutional courts on policy agendas and debates.
