Donald L. Horowitz argues that constitutional processes ought to be geared to securing commitment to democracy by those who participate in constitutional processes. Using evidence from numerous constitutional processes, he makes a strong case for a process intended to increase the likelihood of a democratic outcome. He also assesses tradeoffs among various process attributes and identifies some that might impede democratic outcomes. 0aConstitutional law. 0aDemocracy. 4aDerecho constitucional 4aDemocracia0 aCastle lectures in ethics, politics, and economics.
