Trade Review
“A searching examination and critical analysis of the debates in Germany over the meaning and interpretation of the constitution during the Weimar years. No other book in English, so far as I know, treats Weimar constitutionalism with the depth and analytical power of this study. What an admirable study of intellectual history this book is!”—Donald P. Kommers, University of Notre Dame
“An outstanding contribution to the literature on 20th-century Germany and its political/legal theory.”—Ellen Kennedy, University of Pennsylvania
