The chapter explores methods of harmonizing both objectives through several institutional approaches. In doing this, it examines critically the meaning of “sufficient consensus” as implemented in the Northern Ireland and South African processes. It also considers the utility of adopting a minimalist constitution if consensus proves to be elusive, and it examines the serious consequences of failures of inclusion and failures of consensus.","PeriodicalId":207254,"journal":{"name":"Constitutional Processes and Democratic Commitment","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123692564","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A lengthy public participation exercise exposed divisions among the public and delayed the deliberative part of the process. A failure of political leadership to commit itself unequivocally to promoting constitutional change resulted in the vulnerability of the process and its proposals when defections began to appear. Delay in the process exacerbated that vulnerability when elections approached, and consensus proved to be reversible.","PeriodicalId":207254,"journal":{"name":"Constitutional Processes and Democratic Commitment","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126382616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Goals of Constitutional Processes 宪法程序的目标

Horowitz","doi":"10.2307/j.ctv1s5nzk6.4","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2307/j.ctv1s5nzk6.4","url":null,"abstract":"This chapter starts from the fact that there is no generally accepted process for making a new constitution. Taking the overall objective to be democracy and, in societies severely divided along ethnic or religious lines, conflict reduction, it explains that constitutional processes can help to produce agreed rules of political behavior and help to prevent domination of one group by another. It then lays out an argument for inclusion, through elections, of representatives of all major social and ethnic groups, for deliberation rather than negotiation as the main method of proceeding, and for consensus (supplemented, where necessary, by compromise) as an important goal to be achieved. Inclusion in constitutional processes is associated with democratic outcomes, and there is evidence that consensus standards of decision produce higher quality deliberation. The aim is to produce democratic commitment on the part of the politicians who participate in the process, commitment that is more likely when consensus is achieved than it is when a constitution is produced mainly by bargaining and majoritarian processes.","PeriodicalId":207254,"journal":{"name":"Constitutional Processes and Democratic Commitment","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115960879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compromise, for example, may impair the coherence of the constitution or may lead to lack of clarity or subsequent misinterpretation, willful or inadvertent, by political actors or by courts. Examples of such problems and their frequently-harmful effects are provided. The dangers of hasty, late-stage secret reviews of constitutional provisions and the deal-making that such reviews foster are also explored, with relevant examples.","PeriodicalId":207254,"journal":{"name":"Constitutional Processes and Democratic Commitment","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128724693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More successful processes have achieved inclusion by representation, utilized deliberation, and made decisions mainly by consensus. Less successful processes have lacked one or more of these characteristics. Countries that used more successful processes are notably more democratic than are those that used less successful processes. Preexisting conditions do not seem to account for these differences in the limited number of cases considered. Rather, leadership and the determination to persist with a scrupulous, time-consuming process appear to be the important determinants of the outcome.","PeriodicalId":207254,"journal":{"name":"Constitutional Processes and Democratic Commitment","volume":"3 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133057568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

External advisors are commonly not fully familiar with the countries in which they work. They usually provide standard operating procedures and standard constitutional provisions for consideration by inexperienced constitution makers. Among the process prescriptions that are nearly-universally advocated is advice to conduct a program aimed an involving the public extensively in the constitutional process, through a regimen of education about constitutions and solicitation of feedback and proposals from the public. Extensive public participation is asserted to confer legitimacy on a constitutional process and to improve prospects for democracy after the constitution is adopted. This chapter tests these assertions and highlights some of the high costs for deliberation and other goals of the constitutional process that are associated with these prescriptions. It proffers instead some alternative ideas for public involvement.","PeriodicalId":207254,"journal":{"name":"Constitutional Processes and Democratic Commitment","volume":"313 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124442556","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
