This article builds on Andrew Arato’s paradigm of post-sovereign constitution-making as a multi-stage process bringing together different actors. Drawing on the systemic account of democratic representation, the article makes a twofold contribution. First, through an inquiry into the representative dimension of the multi-stage paradigm, it introduces the idea of a representative continuum: a sequence of different, but connected, actors and activities that form a representative whole across different stages. Second, the article offers reflections upon the place and role that courts may occupy within such continuum. Top of page

Abstract

This article builds on Andrew Arato’s paradigm of post-sovereign constitution-making as a multi-stage process bringing together different actors. Drawing on the systemic account of democratic representation, the article makes a twofold contribution. First, through an inquiry into the representative dimension of the multi-stage paradigm, it introduces the idea of a representative continuum: a sequence of different, but connected, actors and activities that form a representative whole across different stages. Second, the article offers reflections upon the place and role that courts may occupy within such continuum. Top of page
