ABSTRACT
Both the developments in the first half of the twentieth century and the still ongoing transformations — as empathically condensed in the financial crisis — have triggered constitutional transmutations which have led to a re-calibration of constitutional conceptuality to new structural realities. In relation to the developments in the early twentieth century, the clearest example of this can be observed in relation to the institutionalisation of economic constitutionalism in the context of the European integration process. This development was subsequently complemented with the embryonic emergence of a whole range of other sectorial constitutional frameworks in relation to other policy areas of the European Union.
