Book Talk: Dr Christina Bambrick (Notre Dame), 'Constitutionalizing the Private Sphere: A Comparative Inquiry' (Cambridge University Press 2025)
Do private actors have constitutional duties? While traditionally only government actors are responsible for upholding constitutional rights, courts and constitution-makers increasingly do assign constitutional duties to private actors as well. Therefore, a landlord may have constitutional duties to their tenants, and a sports club may even have duties to its fans.
