Hanna Lerner explores three processes of constitution-drafting that occurred under conditions of intense clashes over the identity of the state in Israel, India and Ireland. These societies demonstrate an incrementalist and evolutionary approach to constitution-making which enabled them to adopt a democratic constitutional order.
