Delaney -- Should Quebec Adopt a Written Constitution? : A (But Not The) Conclusion / Hoi L. Kong. 520 $a "No province in Canada has codified a written constitution, and whether Quebec should be the first remains a controversial question. A Written Constitution for Quebec? enters into the debate, drawing a roadmap through the legal, political, and constitutional terrain of the issue. Leading scholars each take their own position in the debate, examining the issue from various sides and exploring the forms and limits of a codified Quebec constitution by asking whether Quebec should adopt a written constitution, how the province might go about adopting it, and what such a document might achieve. Along with a comprehensive introduction to constitutional codification and how it relates to Quebec, the book opens with a proposal for a written constitution, with the following analyses expressing a diversity of views on the feasibility and desirability of a written constitution for the province. An array of perspectives--from Indigenous inclusion and reconciliation, interculturalism and democratic constitutionalism, and insights from other federal and plurinational states--are included in this wide-ranging volume. Taking a doctrinal, historical, theoretical, and comparative approach, A Written Constitution for Quebec? extensively addresses Quebec's constitutional future in Canada."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 650 0 $a Constitutional history $z Quebec (Province). 650 0 $a Constitutional law $z Quebec (Province) 650 6 $a Histoire constitutionnelle $z Quebec (Province) 650 7 $a Constitutional history $2 fast 651 7 $a Quebec $2 fast $1 https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39QbtfRCQp8M3whjghQmqVPXM 700 1 $a Albert, Richard $c (Law professor) $e editor. $1 https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCjHRqW3R7wByfmHMWvQXMK 700 1 $a Sirota, Leonid, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Written constitution for Quebec? $d Montreal ; Kingston ; London ; Chicago : McGill-Queen's University Press, 2023 $z 9780228014775 $z 9780228014775 $w (OCoLC)1346417509 830 0 $a Democracy, diversity, and citizen engagement series ; $v 9. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619010807.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4C2EC1BC2E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
