This is what they found: \u201cAmong the world\u2019s democracies constitutional similarity to the United States has clearly gone into free fall. Over the 1960s and 1970s, democratic constitutions as a whole became more similar to the U.S. Constitution, only to reverse course in the 1980s and 1990s. \u2026 the constitutions of the world\u2019s democracies are, on average, less similar to the U.S. Constitution now than they were at the end of World War II.\u201d"}
