- This book draws on extensive theoretical and empirical materials to analyse juridico-political changes after the Arab Spring. The geographical scope and comparative method of its chapters extend to 7 Arab states. Its historical scope traces Arab constitutionalism from 1861 to 2017. Its interdisciplinary approach utilises legal theory, political philosophy, history, political science, sociology, and comparative law. It challenges legal theoretical scholarship generally and not only concerning the role of law in the Arab world. Its novelty lies in introducing a wide-range of Arab legal materials, court rulings, and theorists; and in bringing legal theory to Middle East Studies and vice-versa.
