The constitutional jurisprudence of the Federal Republic of Germany

Kommers's comprehensive work surveys the development of German constitutional doctrine between 1949, when the Federal Constitutional Court was founded, and 1996. Extensively revised and expanded to take into account recent developments since German unification, this second edition describes the background, structure, and functions of the Court and provides extensive commentary on German constitutional interpretation. It includes translations of seventy-six landmark decisions, among them the highly controversial religious liberty and free speech decisions handed down in 1995.
