    • 2022, Martin Morlok, “Das Recht des politischen Prozesses”, in JuS, volume 62, number 1, page 1:
      „Recht des politischen Prozesses“ ist kein eingeführter Begriff, er erklärt sich aber weitgehend von selbst. Es geht um all die Rechtsnormen, die das politische Geschehen regeln, insbesondere die Handlungen, die letztlich in verbindliche staatliche Entscheidungen münden.
      “Law of political process” is no established term, however it is self-explaining largely. It is about the legal norms regulating political happenings, in particular acts putting forth binding decisions within the state.
