Constitutional Democracy and The Sound of (Academic) Silence

Constitutional Democracy and The Sound of (Academic) Silence - An Initial Reply to Jan Komárek Sandro, Paolo Author aut Text xx# 2021 Verfassungsblog 2021-12-21 eng Many constitutions, and the liberal values that permeate them, constitute the reaction to the mass atrocities, often in the face of academic silence (if not full-blown endorsement). Therefore, a constitutional law scholar that does not denounce attempts to subvert the constitutional order as such is actually sacrificing the pursuit of legal knowledge at the altar of a misguided – and historically damned – attempt at ‘neutrality’. The sound of academic silence, in the face of constitutional regression, is deafening.
