First-year law students seeking a structured guide to French constitutional law, particularly the historical development and key principles of the Fifth Republic.

Dr. Roxani Fragkou is a law professor at Université Sorbonne Paris Nord, specializing in constitutional law. Her expertise lies in the French constitutional system and its historical context.
