In 2024, Dr David VitaleLink opens in a new window, together with (University of Ottawa) and (University of Lausanne), secured over 拢700,000 for the 3-year, Trans-Atlantic Platform project, "Open Constitutional Democracy: Reconciling Deliberation and Constitutional Democracy" (Open Constitutional Democracy). The project is co-funded by the UK's , , and .

The Open Constitutional Democracy project responds to the phenomenon of democratic decline, widespread loss of political trust, and failures of governance globally. Building on theories of deliberative democracy, it aims to (i) develop a theory of "Open Constitutional Democracy" that enhances democratic participation while continuing to respect the need to disperse power, ensure political accountability, and secure minority rights, (ii) build an innovative and trust-based model of democracy and governance that is in line with our theory of "Open Constitutional Democracy", and (iii) theorise the role of public education, including the social right to education, in such an "Open Constitutional Democracy".

Dr Vitale and Dr Sonia Cruz D谩vilaLink opens in a new window make up the UK team for the project.

In 2025, Dr Signe LarsenLink opens in a new window secured a British Academy small grantLink opens in a new window to support her research project titled "Post-Imperial Unions: Federal, Transnational, and Regional Constitutionalism after Empires".

This project addresses the pivotal question: What if the European Union were not a historical anomaly, but part of a broader - now largely forgotten - global pattern? In response to imperial decline after WWI, political leaders and intellectuals across Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean explored alternatives to both empire and the nation-state. In this project, Dr Larsen develops the concept of "post-imperial unions" to describe the federal, regional, and transnational constitutional projects proposed in the fifty years following WWI - including the European Economic Community, the failed European Defence Community, the Commonwealth, the French Union, the West Indies Federation, and constitutional debates over post-colonial futures in India and Africa. Through comparative archival research in London, Paris, Florence, Delhi, and Lahore, the project recovers the ideas that animated this global constitutional movement. In doing so, it challenges nation-state-centred models of constitutional order and reopens the question of constitutional alternatives to empire in an age of resurgent imperial geopolitics.
