Constitutional Export
CK - Washington. The German constitution, developed in the late fourties under the influence of the occupational forces to incorporate modern constitutional principles and benefit from lessons learned with older constitutions in Germany and abroad, has become an export. Jutta Limbach, a former chief justice at the Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe and currently head of the Goethe Institut extolled the virtue of the constitution as a cultural export in a forum at the Federal Diet in Berlin. Her presentation is available as a RealPlayer file.
