This book examines the problem of constitutional change in times of crisis. Divided into five main parts, it both explores
and interrogates how public law manages change in periods of extraordinary pressure on the constitution. In Part I, "Emergency,
Exception and Normalcy," the contributors discuss the practices and methods that could be used to help legitimize the use
of emergency powers without compromising the constitutional principles that were created during a period of normalcy. In Part
II, "Terrorism and Warfare," the contributors assess how constitutions are interpreted during times of war, focusing on the
tension between individual rights and safety. Part III, "Public Health, Financial and Economic Crises," considers how constitutions
change in response to crises that are neither political in the conventional sense nor violent, which also complicates how
we evaluate constitutional resilience in times of stress. Part IV, "Constitutionalism for Divided Societies," then investigates
the pressure on constitutions designed to govern diverse, multi-national populations, and how constitutional structures can
facilitate stability and balance in these states. Part V, titled "Constitution-Making and Constitutional Change," highlights
how constitutions are transformed or created anew during periods of tension. The book concludes with a rich contextual discussion
of the pressing challenges facing constitutions in moments of extreme pressure.
