Episode 1 - Post-Soviet Eurasian Constitutionalism
This podcast explores constitutional law in the understudied world of post-Soviet Eurasia. The discussion between the three guests – who are themselves both scholars and advocates based in three different countries in the region— demonstrates both the diversity of the region and the critical importance of constitutional law in the region for democratic development. The podcast also demonstrates the important theoretical lessons that Eurasia holds for better understanding the relationship between constitutional law and democratic governance. In particular, Eurasia helps us understand the impact of post-colonialism, history, and populism on the success of the project of constitutionalism.
