Indias Living Constitution Ideas, Practics, Controversies

"India's Living Constitution" examines the constitution that was adopted nearly three years after independence on 26 January 1950, and which remarkably survives today with its basic structure unaltered. This is an extraordinary achievement given that the generally accepted prerequisites for democratic stability did not exist at the time of its composition, and do not even exist today. Half a century of constitutional democracy is a phenomenon that political scientists and legal scholars need to analyse and explain.Hasan, Zoya is the author of 'Indias Living Constitution Ideas, Practics, Controversies' with ISBN 9781843311362 and ISBN 1843311364.
