The Constitution was written to shape human behavior and affairs, and it does so by appealing to people’s hearts, not only their minds. An interdisciplinary analysis sheds new light on the emotions that underlie constitutional law, with many cogent examples.
"A remarkable and provocative treatise ; it breaks through the boundaries of classical legal scholarship. Andras Sajo’s impressive cross-disciplinary work maps out an exciting new frontier in understanding and theorising about fundamental human rights. It also reminds us, long after Hobbes, that passions are of a crucial importance for institutions.”—Jean-Paul Costa, President, European Court of Human rights
