In my newest piece for @icon_journal, I explore the roots of Poland’s rule-of-law crisis, moving beyond the familiar story of “bad populists” to ask a harder question: why did their political project gain such significant support within society?

A ‘highly recommended’ from @lsolum NEVER gets old. Thank you, Larry!
This piece argues that unwritten constitutionalism is a ubiquitous feature of all constitutional systems. It’s not a quirk of the UK or NZ.

‘Stopping Short of Striking Down’ by our Director Prof @AileenFKavanagh gets the ‘Highly Recommended’ treatment from Prof Lawrence Solum @lsolum on the Legal Theory blog.
Available open access on advance view at @icon_journal
Comparative constitutional theorists treat the strike-down power as an awesome affront to democracy. Aileen Kavanagh argues it is neither as final, as fatal, nor as forceful as assumed — judges routinely stop short. legaltheoryblog.com/?p=11179…

Great to see that my new paper is now open access at @icon_journal. It argues that scholars have exaggerated the strength and significance of the judicial strike-down power.
