The concepts and values that underpin traditional constitutionalism are        increasingly being challenged by political realities that place substantial power        beyond the state. Among the few certainties of a global economy is the growing        incongruity between the political (the world of things that need to be ordered        collectively in order to sustain society) and the state (the major institution of        authoritative political decision-making during modern times). The consequences, and        possibleremedies, of this double disjunction of politics and state and of state and        constitution form the centre of an open debate about 'constitutionalism beyond the        state'.The essays gathered in this collection explore the range of issues raised by        this debate. The effects of recent changes on two of the main building blocks of        constitutionalism - statehood and democracy - are examined in Parts I and II. Since        the movement of overcoming statehood has, arguably, been advanced furthest in the        European context, the question of the future of constitutionalist ideas in the        framework of the EU provides the key theme of Part III. The remaining parts consider        possibletransformations or substitutes. The engagement of constitutions with        international law offers one line of transmutation of constitutionalism (Part IV)        and the diffusion of constitutionalism into separate social spheres provides an        alternative way of pursuing constitutionalism in a new key (Part VI).Finally, the        ability of the theory of global administrative law (examined in Part V) to offer an        alternative account of the potential of jurisdictional control of global governing        processes is examined.Through these explorations, the book offers cross-disciplinary        insights into the impact of recent political and economic changes on modern        constitutionalism and an assessment of the prospects for constitutionalism in a        transnational environment.
