A multidimensional roadmap for the future of constitutional democracy in Brazil. Drawing from influential ideas in law and government around the world, Lorenzetto and Cleve chart a course toward a more just, more free, and more equitable society. At once theoretical, doctrinal, comparative and aspirational, this book is an ode to the democratic values of fundamental rights, the separation of powers, and reconciliatory constitutionalism. And it comes at just the right time for Brazil and the world.
