Four decades have passed since the adoption of the Constitution Act, 1982. Now it is time to assess its legacy. Constitutional Crossroads brings together an impressive assembly of established and rising stars of political science and law, who not only provide a robust account of the 1982 constitutional reform but also analyze the ensuing scholarship that has shaped our understanding of the Constitution. Contributors bypass historical description to offer reflective assessments of issues such as sovereignty, identity and pluralism, the scope and limits of rights, competing constitutional visions, the relationship between the state and Indigenous peoples, and the nature and methods of constitutional change.

Following the election of Donald Trump, the office of the U.S. president has come under scrutiny like never before. Featuring penetrating insights from high-profile presidential scholars, The Presidency provides the deep historical and constitutional context needed to put the Trump era into its proper perspective. Identifying key points at which the constitutional presidency could have evolved in different ways from the nation’s founding days to the present, these scholars examine presidential decisions that determined the direction of the nation and the world.

In the current United States (U.S.) context, we are facing a constitutional crisis with frequent government shutdowns and new debates surrounding immigration, climate change, budgeting practices, and the balance of power. With competing interests, unclear policy, and inconsistent leadership directives, the question becomes: How do contemporary bureaucrats make sense of this ethically turbulent environment? This collection provides a lens for viewing administrative decision-making and behavior from a constitutional basis, as contemporary bureaucrats navigate uncharted territory. Ethics for Contemporary Bureaucrats is organized around three constitutional values: freedom, property, and social equity. These themes are based on emerging trends in public administration and balanced with traditional ethical models. Each chapter provides an overview of a contemporary ethical issue, identifies key actors, institutions, legal and legislative policy, and offers normative and practical recommendations to address the challenges the issue poses. Rooted in a respected and time-tested intellectual history, this volume speaks to bureaucrats in a modern era of governance. It is ideally suited to educate students, scholars, and public servants on constitutional values and legal precedent as a basis for ethics in the public sector.

Between 1995 and 1998, five of the seven judges of the High Court resigned or retired. Has the change in personnel resulted in an equal shift in approach? Does the new bench adhere to the policy-oriented approached that characterised the Mason Court? If not, has a coherent, consistent but different line emerged? What conclusions can be drawn? Yes to the first question, firmly answer the leading practitioners and academics who contribute to this book on current trends in constitutional interpretation. But No, to the second and third. Most members of the current Court, they argue, appear unwilling to embrace the Mason Court's approach. Recent decisions, their analyses show, reflect new approaches to constitutional interpretation but ones that are at times more contradictory than consistent. This book covers the most important topics in contemporary constitutional law, and contains new insights and fresh approaches from leading writers from around Australia. Each Chapter deals with a topic of great contemporary interest and is written in a form that will appeal to practising lawyers as well as academics.

In 1984, Bruce A. Ackerman and Robert E. Charney wrote that the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms situated Canada "at the constitutional crossroads", confronting the choice between parliamentary and popular sovereignty. The authors questioned Canada's commitment to the separation of powers. However the Supreme Court of Canada's abortion jurisprudence suggests that the issue is not whether Canada subscribes to the separation of powers. Rather this jurisprudence challenges the claim that Canada is "at the constitutional crossroads" identified by Ackerman and Charney. When a majority of the judges relied on the Charter right to security of the person to decriminalize abortion in the 1988 Morgentaler case, the Court's decision was consistent with popular sovereignty as Ackerman and Charney depict it. However, many feminist legal scholars contend that the Charter right to sex equality would have provided better protection for women. This scholarship challenges the notion of popular sovereignty on which Ackerman and Charney rely and suggests that we need a new concept to distinguish sovereignty as feminists understand it. Given its roots in the equality principle, I argue this new feminist concept should be known as "substantive sovereignty." Informed by the equality principle, substantive sovereignty differs not only from parliamentary sovereignty or deference but also from popular sovereignty or judicial activism. Assuming the existence of the controversy - parliamentary versus popular sovereignty - that Ackerman and Charney described, it was resolved by adopting the Charter. In contrast, feminist legal scholars who challenge the Supreme Court of Canada's abortion jurisprudence proffer a more compelling identification of our contemporary constitutional controversy. Canada is, in short, "at the constitutional crossroads" between popular versus substantive sovereignty.
