Forum Paper Title: What is constitutional adjudication about? Typology
of the European Constitutional Courts
Description of Forum Paper:
The article suggests a typology of constitutional justice in the
European countries using as a starting point the different mechanisms of

and Verfassungsbeschwerde. Alongside the ideal typical classification, an
attempt is made to clarify the different functions of constitutional
adjudication within the political and constitutional systems
