Description

Selected Works of S.P. Sathe offers a hand-picked selection of articles from the vast corpus of Professor Sathe’s works, published in Indian and international law journals and books over a period of five decades. This three-volume compendium carries the legacy of this eminent jurist and widely cited Indian legal scholar to present and future generations, and will be a cornerstone of inspiration for lawyers and legal scholars for years to come.    The first volume, Constitutionalism, focuses on the Indian Constitution. The essays in this volume are arranged in four thematic sections and discuss the vistas of the Indian Constitution, its provisions with regard to the right to property, the ‘basic structure’ principle, and human rights in the Indian context. The articles critically examine vital aspects of the Constitution ranging from an analysis of its role in constructing social justice to an exploration of the difference between Constitution and Constitutionalism. Also covered are the process of legitimation of the Indian Constitution, and the journey of the Indian judiciary from positivism to structuralism in interpreting the provisions of the Constitution.
