Issu d'une journée d'études qui s'est tenue à Aix-Marseille Université en 2020, le présent ouvrage propose des réflexions sur les rapports que la Constitution entretient avec le passé, sur la façon dont elle le représente, l'appréhende, le traite voire l'utilise. Ce thème, abordé par les jeunes chercheurs de l'Institut Louis Favoreu sous le parrainage de chercheurs expérimentés, trouve, dans l'actualité, des résonances importantes avec, par exemple, la multiplication des lois mémorielles et des devoirs de mémoire, les débats soulevés par une «  cancel culture  » constitutionnelle ou encore la constitutionnalisation de «  vérités  » historiques. Les différentes contributions analysent, dans une perspective historique et comparée, la façon dont la Constitution/les Constitutions se saisissent du passé : à cet égard, elles soulignent la diversité des manières de représenter le passé voire de se l'approprier et interrogent la spécificité du discours constitutionnel sur le passé. Elles analysent également la façon dont la/les Constitutions utilisent le passé, comment ce dernier intervient au soutien de la construction du récit constitutionnel et comment il peut être mobilisé par les différents acteurs constitutionnels, notamment le juge.
