Abstract
It is commonly thought that the Weimar Constitution had little influence in the common law
world. This article traces the translation of the
Weimar Constitution in the Irish context, and
demonstrates its importance in the drafting of
the Irish Free State Constitution of 1922 and the
Irish Constitution of 1937. It specifically looks at
the way in which translation occurred in relation
to the Directive Principles of Social Policy. The
translation of the Irish Constitution into the South
Asian context is analysed, with a particular focus
on India.
