JOURNAL: German Law Journal

The new issue of the German Law Journal, Review of Developments in German, European and International Jurisprudence is now available at www.germanlawjournal.com.



The new issue is an international and comparative Symposium on Constitutional Reasoning, which brings together an impressive and inspiring international group of scholars in constitutional law, comparative law, legal theory and legal philosophy. The Symposium, as highlighted by the author of the introduction, the President of the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany, Professor Andreas Vosskuhle, is both timely and on the cutting edge of comparative constitutionalism, as it illustrates the relevance of contextualized and historically informed comparative jurisprudence. Such scholarship navigates the boundaries between adjudication and comparative constitutional theory and further informs the fast growing and increasingly global practice and discourse on judicial dialogue.
