Description
Summary:This global review summarizes constitutional developments in North Macedonia in 2019. Many of these developments were in response to the country's erosion from electoral democracy in 2010 and what is considered the country's reversion away from democracy in 2012. As this review will establish, in 2019 North Macedonia attempted, through constitutional cases and new laws, to deal with the legacy of backsliding. Despite some positive developments in this regard, new laws and constitutional decisions have not gone far enough to strengthen the country's rule of law or democratic development.
