DESCRIPTION:La Faculté de droit est heureuse d'accueillir le professeur Hoi
  Kong\, Peter A. Allard School of Law\, Université de Colombie Britannique
 . Il parlera du référendum de 2018 sur l'indépendance de la Nouvelle-Caléd
 onie dans un contexte constitutionnel.\n\nRésumé\n\n[En anglais seulement]
  In 2018\, New Caledonia held an independence referendum. This was the mos
 t recent in a series of constitutional referendums that over six decades h
 ave aimed to address the relationship between New Caledonia and France\, a
 nd between the Kanak and non-Kanak communities in New Caledonia. This pres
 entation will analyze theoretical and institutional design issues that New
  Caledonia’s experiences with constitutional referendums have given rise t
 o. It will assess whether those referendums and the 2018 referendum\, in p
 articular\, conformed with democratic norms of public reasoning. The prese
 ntation will conclude by identifying general implications of the analysis 
 for the holding of constitutional referendums in deeply divided societies.
