"The book presents an in-depth examination of the quantitative and qualitative use of foreign precedents by constitutional judges in 37 countries, across 5 continents, during the period 2011-2021. It expands and updates the previous, successful book on the topic (The Use of Foreign Precedents by Constitutional Judges, Hart Publishing, 2013) which covered 16 jurisdictions. By presenting an overview of each country's constitutional and legal framework and a quantitative analysis of the use of judicial decisions of other national jurisdictions at the constitutional level, the book is a state of the art overview of global judicial dialogue in the 21st Century"-- Provided by publisher.
