Abstract
A response to Rosalind Dixon’s Responsive Judicial Review (Oxford University Press 2023) assessing her theory’s prospects and caveats in the Romanian constitutional context. The piece analyses recent case law from the Romanian Constitutional Court and highlights three important shortcomings that limit the applicability of Dixon’s framework: the tendency toward formalism in constitutional interpretation, an impoverished rights review culture, and the persistent conflictual positioning of the Constitutional Court vis-à-vis other constitutional actors. The article ends by speculating on developments that may yet render responsive judicial review more of a reality in Romanian constitutionalism than present conditions may allow.
