Paris: Epitome or Blind Spot of the Constitutional Identity of France?

Paris: Epitome or Blind Spot  of the Constitutional Identity of France?

Giacomo Delledonne 

This short piece aims to make sense of the place of Paris within the French constitutional order and to analyse the role of the capital city in defining the constitutional identity of the country. The paper is organised around two main axes: first, the specific features of the legal status of Paris within the French legal order, and second, how this contributes to shaping the constitutional identity of France.
