About the Opportunity
Juris Centre, along with the contributing authors, successfully completed its first book project in 2023. The project was in collaboration with Shwetwarna Prakashan, a publication house registered in New Delhi. The first and second volumes of “Constitutional Contemplations: Essays and Perspectives” are currently listed on Amazon India and Shwetwarna websites.
We are thrilled to announce that we have been working on the third volume of the book, in collaboration with Shwetwarna Prakashan. Building upon the resounding success and positive reception of the first two books, the third volume of “Constitutional Contemplations” promises to delve even deeper into the complexities and nuances of constitutional law. Featuring a diverse array of contributors and thought-provoking essays, this new volume will continue to explore emerging trends, critical debates, and evolving perspectives within the realm of constitutional scholarship.
Juris Centre calls for contributing authors for “Constitutional Contemplations: Essays and Perspectives (Volume 3)” (ISBN: 978-81-979684-3-3). We are seeking fresh insights, diverse perspectives, and innovative approaches to constitutional law. Whether you are passionate about fundamental rights, judicial activism, constitutional amendments, or any other aspect of constitutional governance, we encourage you to share your expertise and contribute to this enriching dialogue.
We’ve received a lot of positive feedback and interest in this project, and we would be honored to feature your work in the anthology if you’re willing to contribute.
