 note = {In Europe, Latin America, and Asia, new written constitutions have emerged as foundational instruments for breaking with centralized, authoritarian governance and constructing effective and just forms of constitutional government. Yet, despite textual commitments to overcome the Soviet past in new post-Soviet Eurasian constitutions, transformative constitutionalism remains unrealised in many of the former Soviet republics. With the exception of the Baltic states, most have rejected transformative constitutionalism and instead have built centralized super-presidential systems. Underpinning this authoritarian resilience is a deeply-rooted discourse that views centralism as the best strategy for post-Soviet state-building. To be successful, advocates of constitutionalism must show how it offers a better path to effective state-building than centralism.},
