Abstract

Abstract This Essay is a personal reflection on the state of scholarship in the field of comparative constitutional law. I draw parallels between the development of and reaction to ‘critical perspectives’ on domestic US comparative constitutional law today. I argue that the parallels have similar political roots, in concern that critical perspectives undermine the ability of constitutional law, whether domestic or comparative, to resist conservative and antiliberal tendencies. I conclude with some speculations about the source of the political commitments by scholars of comparative constitutional law, and in particular about the way the field’s overall cosmopolitanism affects scholarship on anti-cosmopolitan populisms.

隔离中写作:当代比较宪法的个人解读
本文是对比较宪法领域学术现状的个人反思。我在今天美国国内比较宪法的“批判观点”的发展和反应之间画出了相似之处。我认为,这种相似之处具有相似的政治根源,因为人们担心,批判观点会削弱宪法(无论是国内的还是比较的)抵抗保守和反自由主义倾向的能力。最后,我对比较宪法学者的政治承诺的来源进行了一些推测,特别是关于该领域的整体世界主义对反世界主义民粹主义的学术影响的方式。
