Summary
In his chapter, Andrew Harding entertains the proposition of moving beyond the unhelpful dichotomy of effectiveness/ineffectiveness of transplantation. This paper provides a grounded (theory) approach as to how this can be achieved in relation to constitutional designs. If we apply the mechanism of inheritance to constitutions (as a transport phenomenon), and limit our analysis to federalism (as a modality of hypotaxis), and more specifically to the construct of vertical division of powers within federalism, would we be able to ascertain how such powers were adapted to local conditions in the constitutional designs of these different jurisdictions? The objective is to see if there has been such evolution, and the change in the inherited traits in the pre-constitutional phase (the design phase).
