Brazil in comparative perspective: the legacy of the founding, and the future of constitutional development* * This paper was first written as a result of a supervised research conducted under Professor Bruce Ackerman at Yale Law School. I am deeply grateful for Professor Ackerman's input, support and encouragement throughout the year I spent as his advisee and research assistant. This paper is but a small example of the many ways in which I have benefited from his scholarship and influence.

Abstract

This paper analyzes the Brazilian constitutional founding in a comparative perspective, endeavoring to understand how the founding's identity influenced constitutional development through the three decades since the constitutional document was enacted. By creating a link between the constitutional founding historical and political development and the way the Constitution has changed over time, it hopes to discover more about the evolution and concept of a constitutional identity.
