The workshop will analyze the successes and limitations of international involvement in constitution-making through comparative case studies from countries such as, but not limited to, Afghanistan (2004), Bosnia and Herzegovina (1995), Cambodia (1993), East Timor (2002), Germany (1949), Iraq (2005), Japan (1947), Kosovo (2008), and Rwanda (2003). Particular attention will be given to the ways in which post-conflict Constitutions reflect or resist external influences, and how international actors shape constitutional provisions related to human rights, rule of law, and institutional checks on power to provide deeper insights into the broader challenges of nation-building and democratization in post-conflict settings, including the risks of institutionalizing inequality or discrimination.
