This book asks whether and how far constitutional theory and judicial practice differ between Europe and the United States. This question is explored with respect to the areas of 'freedom of speech', 'human dignity', 'duty of the state to protect individuals from harm', 'adjudication by constitutional and other courts' and, finally, 'democratic theory and international influences'. The authors of this book are constitutional scholars from Europe and the United States, as well as from other constitutional states, such as Canada, Israel, Japan, Peru and South Africa.
