The authors identify themselves with the New Constitutionalism movement, which aims to develop and promote the knowledge necessary for institutional reform and institutional creation through understanding the designer's, creator's, founder's, or reformer's perspective. They look at a variety of good societies as artifacts, as products--at least partly--of design, and consider how such societies can be crafted. Book jacket.
