Title Public Participation and Constitution-Making Process under Revolutionary Constitutionalism: A Comparative Case Study of Iran (1979) and Tunisia (2011)
Summary Participatory constitution-making process has been widely recognized as a crucial process for enhancing the legitimacy, democratic quality, and citizens’ sense of ownership of a constitution. Accordingly, this topic has attracted significant scholarly attention from multiple perspectives. On the other hand, revolutionary constitutionalism – a relatively new field within comparative constitutional law studies – focuses on constitutions that emerge directly from political revolutions.
This research attempts to analyze the implications of revolutionary contexts for participatory constitution-making through a comparative study of post-revolutionary Iran (1979) and Tunisia (2011) to make a connection between the participation measurement models and revolutionary constitutionalism.
