Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Paper Description
As a legal, political, and social movement modern constitutionalism has had an enormous impact internationally for over 200 years. As a concept modern constitutionalism is derived from enlightenment rationalism and political liberalism, and plays an important part in a certain world-view that dominates in Western Europe and the United States. This world-view posits a model of constitutionalism that is suitable for all people, in all places, and under all circumstances. The terms of modern constitutionalism, then, bear the hallmarks of a supposed universality that European and American scholars presume. In this article I discuss the terms of modern constitutionalism, the foundations for these terms, and the implications of accepting these terms uncritically.
