- Negotiation of Article 19 in the Constituent Assembly
Negotiation of Article 19 in the Constituent Assembly
This mini-model has been created to trace the history and evolution of the language that eventually became the Article 19 of the Constitution of India. We hope that visualizing the development of that language will help us understand its context and significance.
PACT: Mini Models
This negotiation contains a selection of mini-models designed to provide an insight into the ongoing work of PACT and to demonstrate Quill's approach to visualising the archive material and tracking the process of negotiation. It differs from our usual approach in that we will be presenting only certain documents and moments in isolation, rather than including everything tabled during the course of a negotiation. This collection is still under construction, and we will be regularly adding small amounts of new material.
