Description
Courting Constitutionalism provides a comprehensive analysis of Pakistan’s constitutional development and the pivotal role of judicial review in shaping public law. The book traces how Pakistan’s courts have navigated the tension between political forces and constitutional principles, examining landmark judicial decisions and their political consequences.
Moeen Cheema explores the institutional dynamics between the judiciary, legislature, and executive, demonstrating how courts have both constrained and enabled political actors. The work addresses critical periods of constitutional crisis, military interventions, and democratic transitions, offering insights into how judicial review functions in a context of political instability.
By situating Pakistan’s constitutional experience within broader comparative frameworks, the book contributes to our understanding of how courts in developing democracies negotiate their role in governance and constitutional interpretation.
