Reviews

I strongly believe that New Constitutional Horizons is a well-constructed and thorough contribution to a debate that never gets old. I recommend its reading as it pushes us to rethink common places in constitutional pluralism and analytical legal theory. * Francesco Rizzi Brignoli, University of Bologna, Jurisprudence * New Constitutional Horizons: Towards a Pluralist Constitutional Theory by Cormac Mac Amhlaigh is an invitation to rethink constitutional theory from a multifaceted perspective. The book correlates multilevel interactions of power, that are influenced by various factors, including constitutional law, as well as explores the possibility of a normative model capable of solving the peculiarities of this complex relationship, involving the participation of internal democratic institutions within each country, as well as those that operate at the international level. For instance, power dynamics can arise among individuals, groups, organisations, and institutions, and may be affected by variables such as race, gender, social class, religion, and nationality. * Maurício Sullivan Balhe Guedes, Jindal Global Law Review * New Constitutional Horizons:Towards a Pluralist Constitutional Theory clarifies our new legal and political reality...In a world where boundaries between legal systems are constantly increasing in obscurity, Mac Amhlaigh's book provides us with much needed clarity. The advancements in legal and constitutional theory made therein render this contribution an essential handbook to all those who wish to advance, or simply understand, constitutional pluralism and plurality. * Oskar Gabriel Polański, The Modern Law Review * New Constitutional Horizons: Towards a Pluralist Constitutional Theory by Cormac Mac Amhlaigh is an invitation to rethink constitutional theory from a multifaceted perspective. * Maurício Sullivan Balhe Guedes, Jindal Global Law Review * This proposed solution meets legitimacy head-on: transnational constitutionalism is legitimate insofar as it successful achieves the valuable tasks we set for it. * Alex Latham-Gambi, Assistant Professor, Birmingham Law School, Public Law * This is a rich and provocative book...It will be required reading for scholars of transnational constitutionalism, and more generally of interest to legal theorists, political philosophers, and international, transnational and EU lawyers. * Alexander Latham-Gambi, Birmingham Law School *
