Reviews

It is the single comprehensive and erudite overview of constitutional frameworks of the entire Central Asian region and it should be read by everyone who has interest in the politics and constitutions of the respective states. It is, ultimately, a must read for scholars interested in constitutions in authoritarian regimes, a field of constitutional studies which has by and large overlooked Central Asia, for no compelling reason. -- Armen Mazmanyan, Center for Constitutional Studies, Apella Institute * I*CONnect Blog * ... this volume is a welcome, impressive, and perceptive addition to the comparative law of the Commonwealth of Independent States. -- W E Butler * Journal of Comparative Law * Newton's storytelling reveals profound curiosity, deep understanding, a sense of empathy, and, occasionally, a sense of disquiet... Superbly executed and absorbing, the book compels this reader to agree with the author that the Central Asian experience is emblematic of the tensions and issues contemporary constitutional orders face everywhere. -- Mavluda Sattorova, University of Liverpool * International Journal of Constitutional Law *
