The current issue of Seminar, available here, is devoted to celebrating sixty years of the Indian Constitution. Contributors include Pratap Bhanu Mehta, Uday S. Mehta, Upendra Baxi, Sudhir Krishnaswamy, among others. Several members of this blog – Vinay Sitapati, Rohit De, Vikram Raghavan, and myself – have also contributed to the issue. I hope to provide more detailed reflections on some of the contributions soon.
