Altneuland: The Constitution of Europe in an American Perspective
The LAPA conference on the new European Constitution, “Altneuland: The Constitution of Europe in an American Perspective” was held on April 29-30, 2004, the first day at NYU Law School and the second day at Princeton. The papers addressed the draft European constitution before it started the ratification process and considered the future of constitutionalism in Europe as that process was about to begin. They were published in a special issue of the journal I-Con, the International Journal of Constitutional Law, a faculty-edited journal based at the NYU Law School. We have included a table of contents here, but to get links to the abstracts and papers themselves, go to the June 2005 issue of I-Con, Volume 3, Number 2-3 . When you click on that link, you will find the contents behind a paywall. If you are entering through a Princeton campus computer or through a Princeton-based VPN connection from off-campus, you will be able to access all articles because Princeton subscribes to the journal. If you are outside the Princeton environment, contact your local university library about whether your institution has access to the journal.
