Synopsis
The *Constitutional Documents ofDenmark , Norway and Sweden * is published as volume six of the Europe Part of the series *Constitutions of the World from the late 18th Century to the Middle of the 19th Century*. This volume contains 32 of the most important constitutional documents from these three countries.
The historian **Thomas Riis** has edited the three Danish constitutional texts from the period 1831 to 1849 included in this volume: the "Anordning angaaende Provindsial-Stænders indførelse i Danmark" (1831), the "Verfassungsentwurf für Dänemark, Schleswig und Holstein" (1848) and "Danmarks Riges Grundlov" (1849).
A total of six constitutional documents were published in Norway during the relevant period, and each has been edited and annotated here by the jurist **Dag Michalsen** . Central to these documents are the two constitutions called "Kongeriget Norges Grundlov" from the year 1814 and the "Rigs-Act" of 1815, which have been edited along with their corresponding amendments.
The Swedish section of the volume is edited by **Magnus Isberg** , research assistant at the Swedish parliament, and contains six constitutional texts; namely, the "Regerings-Form" of 1809, the "Riksdags-Ordning" of 1810, and both the first and second "Successions-Ordning" (1809/10) and "Tryckfrihets-Förordning" (1810/12), as well as the corresponding amendments to all of them up to 1844.
