Britain does not have a written constitution. It has rather over centuries developed a set of miscellaneous conventions rules and norms that govern political behavior. By contrast Bosnia's constitution was written quite literally overnight in a military hanger in Dayton USA to conclude a devastating war. By most standards it does not work and is seen to have merely frozen a conflict and all development with it. What might these seemingly unrelated countries be able to teach each other? Britain racked by recent crises from Brexit to national separatism may be able to avert long-term political conflict by understanding the pitfalls of writing rigid constitutional rules without popular participation or the cultivation of good political culture. Bosnia in turn may be able to thaw its frozen conflict by subjecting parts of its written constitution to amendment with civic involvement on a fixed and regular basis a 'revolving constitution' to replicate some of that flexibility inherent in the British system. A book not just about Bosnia and Britain a standard may be set for other plural multi-ethnic polities to follow.
