              COMPARATIVE CONSTITUTIONS [COMPCONS]

There is now a list for the exchange of ideas and information
on constitutions, constitutional law, and constitutionalism
around the world. It is sponsored by the Center for the Study
of Constitutionalism in Eastern Europe at the University of
Chicago Law School and the University of Richmond School of Law.
Its creators, Dwight Semler and John Paul Jones, hope that the
list will draw participants from many disciplines including
economics, history, law, political science, public administration,
and sociology. Others working in the area are certainly welcome.
Participants are invited to exchange ideas, sources, drafts,
criticisms, and sympathies.

Among other topics on which discussion might be anticipated:

-- establishing/re-establishing private rights to property or
commerce by constitutional guarantee

-- establishing central bank independence by constitutional guarantee

-- constitutional allocations of governmental power among democratic
and other institutions of the state

-- constitutional aspects of the state's coexistence with non-state
institutions (church, press, trade union, university)

-- subsidiarity and the constitutional allocation of governmental
power among federal entities (national, regional, municipal)

-- alternative forms of representative government (proportional, first-
past-the-post)

-- devices for constituent regulation of individual lawmakers
(recall, impeachment, criminal liability, term limits)

-- limits and devices for constitutional amendment

-- the nature and assignment of constitution interpreting
