Long considered the gold standard for full-text, integrated versions of the world's constitutions, Constitutions of the Countries of the World Online (CCW Online) offers authoritative English translations of 187 country constitutions by scholars familiar with the legal systems and languages of the foreign jurisdictions they cover. Complementing the official documents are introductory and comparative notes examining recent amendments, and highlighting pertinent historical, political, and economic factors.
The editors monitor constitutional changes around the world as the unfold, from the recent political upheavals in the Middle East, to the changes brought by economic modernization in East Asia to the constitutional restructurings in many parts of Africa. When changes to the constitutional documents occur, they are updated quickly in the database, and supplemented with new analysis.
