Taxonomy: racism versus fiscal conservatism in voting on segregationist Provisions in Alabama’s constitution
Constitutional Political Economy, 2008Co-Authors: Michael Reksulak, William F. ShughartAbstract:On Election Day 2004, a razor-thin majority of Alabama’s voters rejected a proposed amendment to remove overtly segregationist language from the state constitution. Opponents had contended that approval would have opened the legislative door to significantly higher taxes. We employ the results from two earlier special elections to analyze the outcome. In 2000, voters supported repealing a Constitutional Provision prohibiting interracial marriages. Three years later, Alabamians were asked to reveal their preferences with respect to additional taxation. The evidence suggests that opposition to higher taxes rather than bigotry was decisive in the rejection of Amendment 2 in 2004.

Constitutional Provision on EU Citizenship – The Case of Croatia
2011Co-Authors: Tina OrsolicAbstract:Croatia is the first State to adopt a Provision concerning European citizenship in its Constitution: None of the current EU Member States’ Constitutions include such an article. Three issues concerning this Provision are of interest. First, what is the legal effect of the inclusion of such a Provision in the Constitution within the present context of European integration? Second, what were the reasons for Croatia to include this Provision in the Constitution? Third, what consequences will this Provision likely generate in the future? The article analyzes these questions and concludes that the adopted Constitutional Provision on European Union citizenship may turn out to be much less benign than would first appear.
