Professor Philipp Dann talks about liberal constitutionalism and postcolonialism in the Global South. But even a very first proposition (that liberal constitutionalism is under attack in many places, including the Global South) turns complicated the closer we look at it: What exactly is ‘liberal constitutionalism’? What is the Global South? Who attacks and for what reasons? How do place and context matter? What has postcolonialism got to do with? Building on a variety of writings in this area, Professor Dann tries to disentangle some threads but also challenge a number of assumptions.
