The Centre is delighted to announce that our new special double issue of the Review of Constitutional Studies is now fully available to download via both Heinonline and EBSCO (Hein links provided below).

The special issue, which is titled "Our More Than Human Constitutions," was guest edited by Professors Jessica Eisen (University of Alberta) and Lindsay Borrows (Queen's University). It comprises contributions from scholars in an array of academic fields -- including Indigenous law, environmental law, and animal law -- on the ways in which our legal orders, Indigenous and state, approach the regulation of the more-than-human.

While the issue is currently only available for Hein and EBSCO subscribers, it will be available for free on our website one year after its initial publication.
