Constitutional Sentiments Reviews

"A remarkable and provocative treatise ; it breaks through the boundaries of classical legal scholarship. Andras Sajos impressive cross-disciplinary work maps out an exciting new frontier in understanding and theorising about fundamental human rights. It also reminds us, long after Hobbes, that passions are of a crucial importance for institutions.Jean-Paul Costa, President, European Court of Human rights -- Jean-Paul Costa
"Both the cultural-historical and the strictly legal erudition of the author are impressive and the depth and orginality of his intuitions are very often admirable. . . . Constitutional Sentiments is a well written scholarly argument, which reads pleasurably, flowing often like a good novel."Bogdan Iancu, Law & Politics Book Review -- Bogdan Iancu * Law & Politics Book Review *
