European and US constitutionalism : comparing essential elements -- Freedom of speech in Europe -- Freedom of expression adjudication in Europe and the United States : a case study in comparative constitutional architecture -- The concept of human dignity in European and US constitutionalism -- 'Human dignity' in Europe and the United States : the social foundations -- The protective function of the state -- The protective function of the state in the United States and Europe : the constitutional question -- Constitutional adjudication in Europe and the United States : paradoxes and contrasts -- Democracy and international influences -- The two world orders.

European constitutionalism is not merely an intra-European phenomenon but it can also be compared to other major forms of constitutionalism. Over the past decade or so issues have emerged which seem to indicate that European constitutional theory and practice is becoming aware that it has developed certain rules and possesses certain characteristics which distinguish it from US constitutionalism and vice versa. This book explores whether such differences can be found in the five areas of 'freedom of speech', 'human dignity', 'duty to protect', 'adjudication' and 'democracy and international influences'. The authors of this book are constitutional scholars from Europe and the United States as well as from other constitutional states, such as Canada, Israel, Japan, Peru and South Africa.
