More about the book
The book explores the interplay between constitutionalism and liberalism through the lens of thinkers like Alexis de Tocqueville, Hannah Arendt, and Ernst-Wolfgang Böckenförde. It emphasizes that constitutionalism should not be viewed solely as a means to restrict government power; rather, it plays a vital civic role that underpins the liberal state. This perspective challenges traditional interpretations and highlights the importance of civic engagement in sustaining democratic governance.
