Klemen Jaklic's book on constitutional pluralism is a comprehensive inquiry into an intellectual movement whose supporters have much less in common than could be expected. In his book, Jaklic makes an effort to systematise the movement and provide a normative dimension to it, something that leads him to defend a utopian model of democracy for the EU. I will argue that this book, with all its virtues, shows also all of the weaknesses of constitutional pluralism: its lack of common premises, an absence of common purpose and a tendency to mix descriptive with normative analyses. The review will thus propose an alternative to the one proposed by the author, but under the assumption that the promise of constitutional pluralism is yet to be achieved, if it ever will be.
