Sumario:The book is an extraordinary achievement. It doesn't just teach you to better understand the 18th century. It also shows how speculative spirit and political reality combine in a saddle season and is a treasure trove for constitutional and social theorists. "Gerd Roellecke in: The Public Administration 2007, Issue 22" Hans-Christof Kraus has in a detailed as well as comprehensive Examination shows what role the model of the English constitution played for the discussions of the Enlightenment. "Karlheinz Weißmann in: Secession, 20/2007" This Munich habilitation thesis impresses with several advantages: it takes on a topic that has since become one of the rather neglected ones , but belongs to major ideas and political history topics of the European early modern period; it identifies its author as extraordinarily well-read, stylistically certain and historically accomplished and can be read as an important contribution to the prehistory of the current discussion of a European constitution. "Notker Hammerstein in: Historical Journal, October 2007" The book is based - in addition to excellent knowledge of secondary literature - on an impressively broad source base; diverse contemporary publication genres are taken into account and interpreted in a context-sensitive manner. [...] Hans-Christof Kraus has written an important book. "Christoph Schönberger in: Journal for Modern Legal History, Issue 3/4 2007" Kraus has published a kind of manual on the subject. "Roland Kleinhenz, magazine of the Savigny Foundation for Legal History, Vol. 125, 2008 "Kraus' study not only gives a comprehensive overview of the reception of the English constitution in the German-speaking area and thus an insight into German thinking in the Ancien Régime, but also shows the outstanding importance that the English constitution developed outside of its own country.
