In his thought-provoking piece of contemporary global relevance, Theunis Roux makes an important intervention in the debates around the design, character, and effects of the Indian and South African constitutions, with the primary aim of nudging our politics towards securing, albeit incrementally, an inclusive and democratic vision of constitutionalism. In this exercise, Roux attempts to manage a herculean task within the confines of an academic article, which has its shortcomings and omissions. Yet, he achieves something remarkable and thus, acts as the locus of this symposium.
