By gathering experts from different fields and approaches this workshop aims to explore the boundaries of constitutional time, which time-frames are relevant for constitutional law, and to address the legal strategies and techniques to make temporal constitutional law possible. The purpose of the workshop is to make concrete proposals for ensuring consistency between constitutional law and time and to address the potential and critics of legal devices elaborated for this purpose. The workshop will also examine the timeframe adopted in different domains of law, to assess similarities, differences, and peculiarities of the legal time therein.
