Summary note

The new generation of African constitutions from the 1990s aimed to embed democracy and constitutionalism after decades of instability. However, frequent amendments threaten this progress. This book examines the processes of constitutional change and how amendments can be made without undermining efforts to entrench democracy and constitutionalism.
