The Silence of Constitutions (Routledge Revivals): Gaps, 'Abeyances' and Political Temperament in the Maintenance of GovernmentRoutledge, 11 sty 2013 - 190 First published in 1989, Michael’s Foley’s book deals with the ‘abeyances’ present in both written and unwritten constitutions, arguing that these gaps in the explicitness of a constitution, and the various ways they are preserved, provide the means by which constitutional conflict is continually postponed. Abeyances are valuable, therefore, not in spite of their obscurity, but because of it. |
