Constitutional Mobilization

Constitutional Mobilization is a theoretical framework within the field of Popular Constitutionalism that elucidates how grassroots social movements and public advocacy initiatives actively engage, interpret, and deploy constitutional norms to influence legal meaning, judicial outcomes, and policy development, thereby distinguishing itself from top-down judicial or doctrinal approaches by emphasizing popular agency in constitutional discourse.
