Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Do private actors have constitutional duties? While traditionally only government actors are responsible for upholding constitutional rights, courts and constitution-makers increasingly do assign constitutional duties to private actors as well. Therefore, a landlord may have constitutional duties to their tenants, and a sports club may even have duties to its fans. This book argues that this phenomenon of applying rights 'horizontally' can be understood through the lens of republican political theory. Themes echoing such concepts as the common good and civic duty from republican thought recur in discourses surrounding horizontal application. Bambrick traces republican themes in debates from the United States, India, Germany, South Africa, and the European Union. While these contexts have vastly different histories and aspirations, constitutional actors in each place have considered the horizontal application of rights and, in doing so, have made republican arguments. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core. This book offers a new theoretical take on clashes of rights between private actors, or the 'horizontal application' of rights. It will be of interest to scholars studying the relationship between government and civil society. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core. This item is printed on demand.
