Title The Longevity of Constitutional Courts in New Democracies: A Comparative Analysis in Indonesia, South Korea and Myanmar
Summary Constitutional courts were prominent in the early years of democratic transition in South Korea, Indonesia, and even in Myanmar. Although the South Korean and Indonesian Courts are still operating effectively, the Myanmar Constitutional Tribunal is now facing the threat of being abolished. The thesis studies the South Korean and Indonesian experiences to highlight how to establish an independent, active and stable constitutional court. By evaluating the defects of the current system of Myanmar Tribunal and as a result of comparative analysis from selected countries, the thesis proposes some possible solutions to save Myanmar’s Constitutional Tribunal from being abolished and to bring it to be more active.
