The American constitution plays a crucial role in delegating of laws in the country and it governs all citizens. On the other hand, a state's constitution
serves a similar purpose but only under the state's jurisdiction. This constitution is the basis for other state laws including those of other sections of the
state government. This implies that all the laws outlined by this constitution affect its organization, operations and maintenance. Actions carried out
outside the constitutional boundaries are considered to be illegal. As such, the Arizona constitution has endeavored to effectively guide... Show more

In addition, these entities are individualized and empowered to sue others and be sued in return. This makes it simple for citizens who have qualms
with such corporations to seek the intervention of the law since they are treated as such entities under the law. As constitution directs the procedures
and requirements for the formation of corporations, it similarly warns that failure to incorporate these conditions will make corporations non viable and
their claims inadmissible in courts. Corporations are also limited by this article in their capacity to fund political actions and endeavors. Article 15 also
addresses the same issue of corporations only its concern is on public service commissions. It is in this regard that this Article establishes the Arizona
Corporation Commission (Arizona Corporation Commission, 2010). As entities formed with the sole purpose of offering necessary services to citizens,
the commissions perform the role of regulating and providing public utilities. The constitution also indicates that these corporations are under state
regulation which aids in creating accountability and effective operations in these bodies.
Finally, public education in Arizona is also another area which is strictly controlled by the Arizona constitution. This is inclusive of all types of
schools be it elementary, middle or high schools. Included in this lot are also colleges and universities. In Article 11, these schools' conduct

Differences Between Iroquois Constitution And Us Constitution
The Iroquois and United States constitutions have very analogous ideas, but also have very distinct differences as well. The Great Law of Peace
(Iroquois constitution) dates back from the fifteenth century and were created by the Iroquois confederacy. Columbus didn't arrive in America until
1492 and even then it took them a long period of time to establish themselves in the new country. Meaning the Iroquois constitution initially came to
existence before the United States constitution came into place. When the founding fathers of America wrote the constitution they had to base their
constitution on something because of the fact that they were a new nation being born and needed a sense of guidance. So they base certain ideas from
their native country, Mother England and also borne ideas from the Iroquois constitution and as well implemented new concepts of ... Show more

The American Constitution And The Constitution
Let take a look at some of the compromises and challenges the Founding Fathers had to overcome when they set out to rewrite the American
Constitution. The government built upon the Articles of Confederation was failing and change was needed. The American Constitution would not have
been adopted without compromise over very difficult topics such as slavery, size and structure of government, taxation, elections, and governing
responsibilities. The Federal and States balance of authority and division of responsibility provided a level of comfort to the citizens concerned with
being ruled once again. Human natures mistrust of others is written into the Constitution as the "separation of powers". The birth of political parties
(Federalists and Antifederalists) highlights the two distinct different in America views of politics, small central government or a strong central
government. The Constitutional compromise, states with large populations like Virginia and South Carolina wanted the population of their states to
determine the number of representatives in congress, of course, this count would include slaves. The smaller northern states were the use of Slaves

The Constitution Of The United Kingdom
The present constitution in the United Kingdom is unwritten. There has been much dispute as to whether or not a written constitution, as implemented
by many other countries such as France and the United States of America, should also be adopted by the United Kingdom. The working mechanism of
government is conditioned by a system of procedures, which regulate on one level of the principle organs of the state, whilst others govern the conduct
of official business. Amid these usages are ones that have the position of a convention. Lord Wilson describes these conventions as '...political
principles which regulate relations between the different parts of our constitution and the exercise of power but which do not have legal force.' Since
they do not have legal force, certain questions emerge, such as whether constitutional conventions should be codified, and whether their unclassified
nature would permit such alteration. This essay will consider the arguments of the codification of constitutional conventions if a written constitution
were to be implemented by the United Kingdom. Reasons proposing and opposing codifying conventions will be considered, specifically focusing on
these foremost resolutions: legally enforcing codified conventions, allowing codified conventions to be regarded as non–legal rules, specify a selection
of conventions to be codified, or quite simply leave them as they are, uncodified. This analysis will outline the varied views on codifying conventions

Disadvantages Of The Us Constitution
The UK constitution sets out the powers and limitations of the government, as well as the rights of citizens, it is not fully codified and is generally
based on conventions. This is in stark contrast to other constitutions, most notably America's, which is fully codified and available to all citizens.
There are benefits to the U.K constitution, mostly regarding it's flexibility. As it is unwritten (or uncodified), it can react quickly to reflect social change
without the need for worrying about whether something is 'Constitutional' – the integration of the European Convention on Human Rights via the
Human Rights Act 1998, as passed under the Blair government, serves to be a good example of this, but the Constitution's flexibility is also a point of
criticism, as this means that no law is entrenched and those rights are therefore potentially at stake – this leads to many liberal arguments that the
constitution should become codified to ensure the citizen's rights are completely protected, and not reliant on the government of the day's whim.

U.s. Constitution And The Constitution
When the U.S. constitution was first signed 1776, it established a system of checks and balances, and a distinct separation of powers amongst the
three branches of government. But, even with this system of checks and balances in place, it is evident that the 3 branches are not equal, and that
congress is significantly more powerful than both the executive and judicial branches of government. Ultimately, the U.S. congress is the strongest
branch of government because of its vast amount of enumerated powers including the elastic clause, which allows congress to pass all necessary and
proper laws to carry out its enumerated powers, and due to judicial and executive branches' limited ability to check congress's power. In article 1,
section 8 of the constitution; it establishes congress's enumerated powers. Just from this list of powers alone it is clear that the Framers intended for
the legislative branch of government to be the most energetic and most powerful. Congress has the power to make laws, spend and raise money
without the approval of the other branches of government, and to even declare war. Amongst these powers, congress also has many others, but these
are just the main enumerated powers that congress has. Now, what makes congress so powerful in addition to its vast amount of enumerated powers is
the fact that the other branches of government have relatively little power in checking the legislative branch and its powers. For example, under the

The first ten amendments to the Constitution, called the Bill of Rights, were ratified as a group by December 15, 1791(Bianco, 2013). Within the Bill
of Rights only three amendments stand out in today world. Amendment One states that each citizen has the right to the freedom of religion, speech,
and press and is allowed to assemble and petition the government (Bianco, 2013). While we all have the right of the freedom of religion we at the
same token have taken religious freedoms a bit too far at times. We have removed it from schools, yet we allow religious rights to those that are
terrorizing our country. The second amendment states that everyone has the right to have a gun (for lawful purposes) and the right to form as a militia
(Bianco, 2013). While this amendment is good for law abiding citizens the argument remains for those that obtain guns illegally or possess weapons
that should not be possessed by an ordinary person. Gun advocates debate that many of the issues with guns in America are not those of law abiding
citizens but of those obtained illegally or in possession of those that should not have them. Amendment nine states that citizens hold rights that are not

The U.S Constitution is one of the most, if not the most, important documents ever written in political history. The constitution established America's
national government and provided the fundamental framework for the present and future legal parameters by which the american people would be
governed by. The Constitution was officially signed September 17, 1787 in Philadelphia during a constitutional convention. In order for the constitution
to actually be an official document, it had to have been ratified meaning that at least nine of the thirteen states present had to approve this document. It
was easy for the first seven voters to make their decisions who were pro–constitution (federalists), but nevertheless, there were people, anti–federalists,
who did not support the constitution. Although they did not want the Articles of Confederation in place, neither did they want to ratify the constitution
because they opposed of having a strong central government. The ratification of the constitution changed the face of the United States and set forth a
model for future documents to come. Federalists fought very hard against their opposing party. Why was it so important to the federalist to get this

Texas Constitution Vs Us Constitution Essay
The Texas Constitution and the United States Constitution have many similarities and differences. For example, they both have a Bill of Rights and
both work hard to be sure to protect the rights of their citizens. They both deal with the privacy of their citizens but the Texas constitution is very
verbose while the U.S. Constitution is very brief and to the point. The Texas Constitution also outlines strict laws regarding the states spending
requirements.
Both the Texas and the U.S. Constitution have a Bill of Rights, checks and balances, and have divided government via lower and higher powers. The
U.S. Constitution was created to give the government power, in contrast the Texas constitution made sure that the main government does not have too
much power over the Texas citizens. The founding fathers of the Texas constitution were wary of the government wielding too much power so they
wanted to be careful to protect themselves. A similaritiy between the U.S. and Texas Constitutions include the fact that both have a Bill of Rights that

Bigger is not always better, in the case of the Texas Constitution having the second longest state Constitution and the fourth most amended Constitution
in the United States, makes it a difficult and complicated document. The Texas Constitution has been rewritten a total of six times since becoming

it inconvenient and difficult to reform the current Texas Constitution.
There are four key functions of a Constitution. One function is stating the source of power and authority for legitimate state political institutions. Also
in a state Constitution is the delegation of power, which explains how powers are granted and used by institutions and individuals. Another function is

of political power.

A constitution is an accumulation of principles and rules that establishes the character of a government. Additionally, by showing the authority each

four have been ratified leaving the remaining few defeated by the Texas voters. Furthermore amending the Texas constitution, according to Article 17 of

Introduction A 'free society' is a system of interaction between humans wherein every person can participate in a civilised manner and without
discrimination. In Australia, the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900 (Imp) is the primary source by which society operates as an
essentially free society. This paper seeks to establish that the functioning of such a society is dependent upon the existence of a legal framework
supporting the rule of law, which is ultimately, an ideology. Analogically, the circumstances in which the application of the rule of law has either
created a free society or undermined it will be explored and its purposes thus inferred to construct a definition of the 'rule of law' reflecting

In asserting its judicial independence, the High Court in Plaintiff S157/2002 v Commonwealth stated it was 'the ultimate decision–maker in all matters
where there is a contest.' Zywicki suggests that as long as the court follows precedent and thereby gives individuals more certainty of knowledge over
the rights they possess, 'social coordination and economic wealth' will increase. The courts would not be relying on its discretion, but rules which will
apply equally in the future. Thus, refining Dicey's definition, Zywicki views 'rule–based decision making' as a basic concept of the rule of law.
Contrarily, Sykes suggests discretion may be a 'matter of necessary efficiency' which is more valuable than strictly adhering to the rule of law. The
rule of law, then, does not encapsulate the absolute value of society. Sykes refers to police discretionary power; however, this concept of balancing
the rule of law against other values may be extended to situations wherein exceptions and defences in law apply to certain groups. Consider the
conferral of legal privilege and the requirement of confidentiality on legal practitioners in criminal law– whereas equality before the law operates in
favour of the client, the law of legal privilege applies only to legal practitioners. As Sykes emphasises, 'it would be unjust if the law failed to account

document is a living constitution is the thirteenth amendment. "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof
the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction." (United) This amendment ended
slavery in United States which was not originally part of the founders' forethought. With the semi–flexibility of the Constitution, enslaved black people
were set free from the chains that bound them physically, but not the chains that bound them mentally. Through the monumental court case "Plessy v.
Ferguson" of 1896 initiated the establishment of the fourteenth amendment which upheld state racial segregation laws for public facilities under the
doctrine of "separate but equal." However this doctrine did not stand for long thus, "on May 31, 1955, Warren read the Court's unanimous decision,

Confirmation Of Constitution
Confirmation of a constitution is a strong move that makes the drafted document the law of the specified land. It should be supported by majority
parties involved. As an editor of the New York newspaper, I do not support the ratification of the United States Constitution in 1788 because it tends to
conquer and violate some necessary procedures. I believe reasons such as defects in the post–revolution War articles of confederation and lack of
central authority over foreign and domestic commerce that lead to the drafting of the document was not substantial enough initiate the documentation

Differences Between Iroquois Constitution And Us Constitution
Constitutions have been around for many years. The first ones on record go back as far as the fifteenth century. There are many uses for them, though
often enough are used to outline laws and basic rights of the people under that government. Two very different, yet very alike constitutions are the
Iroquois and the United States Constitutions. They have many differences, but just as many similarities. Often constitutions follow along the same
lines, but the Iroquois and U.S. Constitutions were made quite differently. The cause of many differences is that they were made in different centuries.
Things had changed during the time between these two constitutions. The Iroquois Constitution was made some time between the fifteenth and sixteenth
century, while the U.S. Constitution was made September 17 in 1787. Not only is this the cause of many differences, but in my opinion it is the
biggest difference. Another difference is how they were written. The Iroquois Constitution was written in first person throughout the entire document.
Meaning the writer of this constitution often uses "I", "I am Dekanawidah and with the Five Nations confederate lords I plant the Tree of the Great
Peace." (24). While on the other hand the United States Constitution was written third person. "All legislative Powers herein shall be vested in a

One thing they have in common is authority; each of the documents contain authority as some point or another. Though the U.S. Constitution has a bit
more than the Iroquois. "There shall you sit and watch the council fire of the confederacy of the Five Nations..." (24). The Constitutions proclaims, "No
Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed." (archives.gov, The Constitution of the United States: A Transcription). The United States

Constitutions are ordinances set forth by a legislative body to establish the foundations of a government. The United States of America wrote their
constitution to set the rules in place for the branches of government, their separate powers, and the limitations of the federal government. Since the
United States operates under a federalist government, each state is responsible for establishing their own governments. There arise the states'

Constitution are called the Bill of Rights, they outlined the civil liberties as a citizen of the United States. Civil liberties are the restrictions of
powers the government has on the citizens. For example, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, no government established religion, and the right
to a jury trial are all examples of liberties the government cannot deny its citizens. According to the Supreme Court case Barron v. Baltimore in 1833,
none of the provisions in the Bill of Rights applied to the states, they only applied to the federal government and their restrictions (Bowers 43).
However, the authors of Nevada's 1864 constitution included their own Bill of Rights named the Declaration of Rights. The Declaration of Rights
included all of the same principles that the Bill of Rights did such as the ones listed above. There are two significant differences between the two sets of
amendments. For one, the Nevada constitution requires compensation before the government can seize private property, the U.S. constitution does not
have the same requirement. Second, civil cases in Nevada only require a three–fourths vote to make a decision, federal civil cases require a unanimous

A bill of right is a document which specifies the and freedom of the individuals and so defines the legal extent of liberty. Disadvantages of the UK
adopting a written constitution There are also many argument against the UK adopting a written constitution. One of the disadvantages of the written
constitution is that it is considered rigid. Higher laws are more difficult to change than the statute law. And it is also easier and faster to introduce an act
of parliament than to go for the amendment of constitution. Due to the rigidity and inflexibility of the written constitution it is harder to remain
relevant and up to date because written constitution are not easily changed and there for find it difficult to changing political and social circumstances.

The Australian Constitution
"The Australian Constitution was drafted at a series of constitutional conventions held in the 1890s. It was passed by the British Parliament as part of
the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900 and took effect on 1 January 1901. The Constitution is the legal framework for how Australia
is governed and it can only be changed by referendum."
"A constitution is a set of rules by which a country or state is run."
Some countries have unwritten constitutions which means there is no formal constitution written in one particular document. Their constitutional rules
are derived from a number of sources. Britain sources its constitution from a number of important statutes, or laws, as well as principles decided in
legal cases and conventions. New Zealand and Israel are two other countries that do not have formal written constitutions.
Other countries have formal written constitutions in which the structure of government is defined and the respective powers of the nation and the
states are written in one single document. These systems may also include unwritten conventions and constitutional law, which can inform how the
constitution is interpreted. Australia, India and the United States are examples of countries with a written constitution.
Some constitutions may be amended without any special procedure. The documents that make up the New Zealand Constitution may be amended

Theu.s. Constitution Vs. The Constitution
The U.S Constitution was written by James Madison and was ratified on July 21, 1788. Ever since people had trouble determining how it should be
interpreted. When judges interpret the constitution, they are interpreting new facts to an established law that has been given meaning and has a
historical background. Many people argue that it should be read how it was written who are known as Originalists. Then there are people who believe
that the Constitution evolves as society does and they are known as Living Constitutionalists. Also, some feel that the goal is not do determine whether
the constitution should be determined originally or as a living document, but to give meaning on the basis of facts. In my paper I will discuss
arguments on how the Constitution should be read, whether it be from the Originalists or the Living Constitutionalist's point of view, and why Living
Constitutionalism is better. As society evolves, there are new and more difficult problems that occur, and they cannot be solved by reading the exact
text of the Constitution which makes Living Constitutionalism better. According to Meese "Their intention was to write a document not just for their
times, but for posterity." (Meese 15) Living Constitutionalists might say this is a very bold statement. This quote basically means that the Framers were
trying to create a document that would address future and present problems. A common question that is asked is what did the Framers mean and want

Comparing American Constitution With The Roman Constitution
In order to compare the American Constitution with the supposed Roman Constitution, context is vital as to how a constitution is defined. Thus as
demarcated by the historian Benjamin Straumann, :
"I propose the following criteria for a working concept of constitutionality in the late Republic: a) entrenchment, i.e., rules that are considered more
entrenched... b) political importance, i.e., rules that are of great importance in that they govern the institutions through which political power is
exercised; c) normative importance, i.e. rules that betray the political system's and its protagonists' underlying political theory; and d) that the rules in
question are assigned a juridical quality, that is to say, they are part of recognizably legal arguments" (Straumann pg. 18).... Show more content on

This is opposed to Straumann's definition of a modern constitution: "Here it would seem that features of modern–day constitutions such as writtenness,
judicial review, and the guarantee of certain individual rights serve as the defining, if implicit, features of a real constitutional order" (Straumann pg.
33). Since the Roman Constitution had continually grown out of precedents, it was more like the British common law system than the statutory law
system of the United States, even though the American Constitution's evolution throughout the years has seen a number of amendments. What defines
a constitution for the United States as opposed to Rome seems to lie in the fact that one is written and codified, where as the other is an amalgamation
of laws unofficially put together (Straumann pg.17). Nonetheless, the Roman constitution has indubitably shaped American politics; features shared by
both the Roman and American Constitution include: checks and balances, the

Analysis Of The Constitution And The Constitution
Dahl and the Constitution James Madison and the rest of the Founders of the Constitution undeniably founded a government that has withstood the test
of time. The question that Robert Dahl poses in How Democratic Is the American Constitution? is whether this form of government and specifically the
Constitution is as democratic as it should be and focuses on the Constitution's shortcomings. Dahl argues that the constitution is much less democratic
than it ought to be. Madison, on the other hand, had doubts about the effectiveness and practicality of a purely democratic form of government and
fought for a republic with checks on power. I believe that the Constitution should be evaluated according to how it serves the American population
today. Americans are raised through public schooling and popular culture to view the Constitution as nearly infallible and those that wrote it as
inspired. However, it is clearly not a perfect document. After the bill of rights there has come about seventeen additional amendments, or small changes
by definition, to the original document. It intentionally contained no mention of one of the most egregious aspects of American history – slavery.
Despite all of these things, I agree with Madison that the Constitution needed to limit democracy in order to provide a strong enough national
government that would not endanger personal liberty. Society has changed quite a bit since the original crafting of the Constitution in 1787 which has

Nepal (UML), which preferred a few multi–ethnic states, secured nearly two–thirds majority in the assembly and formed a coalition government with
smaller parties, enhacing their strength further. Thus they had the number and confidence to sail the charter to the finish line.
Second, bothPrime Minister Sushil Koirala and UML leader KP Oli were personally men in a hurry. The ailing Koirala wanted to promulgate the
statute on his watch. The ailing Oli wanted to become premier before his health marred his ambition. Therefore, Koirala and Oli promised support to
each other to realize their respective ambitions, as quickly as possible.
Third, the devastating chain quakes and aftershocks in April and May this year –– they killed nearly 10,000 people, destroyed nearly 7 billion rupees
worth of property and affected one–third of the country 's population –– spurred the coalition to accelerate the pace. It became absurd for them to

Arizona Constitution

  • 1. Arizona Constitution Running Head: ARIZONA CONSTITUTION The Implications of the Arizona Constitution Name: Institution: Tutor: Category: Date: The American constitution plays a crucial role in delegating of laws in the country and it governs all citizens. On the other hand, a state's constitution serves a similar purpose but only under the state's jurisdiction. This constitution is the basis for other state laws including those of other sections of the state government. This implies that all the laws outlined by this constitution affect its organization, operations and maintenance. Actions carried out outside the constitutional boundaries are considered to be illegal. As such, the Arizona constitution has endeavored to effectively guide...

This makes it simple for citizens who have qualms with such corporations to seek the intervention of the law since they are treated as such entities under the law. As constitution directs the procedures and requirements for the formation of corporations, it similarly warns that failure to incorporate these conditions will make corporations non viable and their claims inadmissible in courts. Corporations are also limited by this article in their capacity to fund political actions and endeavors. Article 15 also addresses the same issue of corporations only its concern is on public service commissions. It is in this regard that this Article establishes the Arizona Corporation Commission (Arizona Corporation Commission, 2010). As entities formed with the sole purpose of offering necessary services to citizens, the commissions perform the role of regulating and providing public utilities. The constitution also indicates that these corporations are under state regulation which aids in creating accountability and effective operations in these bodies.

  • 3. Differences Between Iroquois Constitution And Us Constitution The Iroquois and United States constitutions have very analogous ideas, but also have very distinct differences as well. The Great Law of Peace (Iroquois constitution) dates back from the fifteenth century and were created by the Iroquois confederacy. Columbus didn't arrive in America until 1492 and even then it took them a long period of time to establish themselves in the new country. Meaning the Iroquois constitution initially came to existence before the United States constitution came into place. When the founding fathers of America wrote the constitution they had to base their constitution on something because of the fact that they were a new nation being born and needed a sense of guidance. So they base certain ideas from their native country, Mother England and also borne ideas from the Iroquois constitution and as well implemented new concepts of ...

In contrast, Article 1 of the Legislative department–Section I. Congress states that the powers are vested in senate and house. "All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives."

  • 5. The American Constitution And The Constitution Let take a look at some of the compromises and challenges the Founding Fathers had to overcome when they set out to rewrite the American Constitution. The government built upon the Articles of Confederation was failing and change was needed. The American Constitution would not have been adopted without compromise over very difficult topics such as slavery, size and structure of government, taxation, elections, and governing responsibilities. The Federal and States balance of authority and division of responsibility provided a level of comfort to the citizens concerned with being ruled once again. Human natures mistrust of others is written into the Constitution as the "separation of powers". The birth of political parties (Federalists and Antifederalists) highlights the two distinct different in America views of politics, small central government or a strong central government. The Constitutional compromise, states with large populations like Virginia and South Carolina wanted the population of their states to determine the number of representatives in congress, of course, this count would include slaves. The smaller northern states were the use of Slaves was on the decline or not practices at all did not agree with having slaves counted for population, as the southern states wanted. If this was allowed the Southern states would have a disproportionate number of elected representatives in congress. So as a compromise was made, the 3/5th rule. The rule counted one slave as ...

This cost them dearly in the end. In closing, the Constitution was very essential to the make–up of our country. It determined what form of government would be used as well as its power and the power of the people. While the Federalists did win in that all the states ratified the document, they also compromised to the Anti–federalists and a Bill of Rights was created additionally. This pleased both sides, the Anti–federalists and Federalists alike, as this document protected and procured a great many of the rights and privileges we enjoy today.

  • 7. The Constitution Of The United Kingdom The present constitution in the United Kingdom is unwritten. There has been much dispute as to whether or not a written constitution, as implemented by many other countries such as France and the United States of America, should also be adopted by the United Kingdom. The working mechanism of government is conditioned by a system of procedures, which regulate on one level of the principle organs of the state, whilst others govern the conduct of official business. Amid these usages are ones that have the position of a convention. Lord Wilson describes these conventions as '...political principles which regulate relations between the different parts of our constitution and the exercise of power but which do not have legal force.' Since they do not have legal force, certain questions emerge, such as whether constitutional conventions should be codified, and whether their unclassified nature would permit such alteration. This essay will consider the arguments of the codification of constitutional conventions if a written constitution were to be implemented by the United Kingdom. Reasons proposing and opposing codifying conventions will be considered, specifically focusing on these foremost resolutions: legally enforcing codified conventions, allowing codified conventions to be regarded as non–legal rules, specify a selection of conventions to be codified, or quite simply leave them as they are, uncodified. This analysis will outline the varied views on codifying conventions ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 8. Disadvantages Of The Us Constitution The UK constitution sets out the powers and limitations of the government, as well as the rights of citizens, it is not fully codified and is generally based on conventions. This is in stark contrast to other constitutions, most notably America's, which is fully codified and available to all citizens. There are benefits to the U.K constitution, mostly regarding it's flexibility. As it is unwritten (or uncodified), it can react quickly to reflect social change without the need for worrying about whether something is 'Constitutional' – the integration of the European Convention on Human Rights via the Human Rights Act 1998, as passed under the Blair government, serves to be a good example of this, but the Constitution's flexibility is also a point of criticism, as this means that no law is entrenched and those rights are therefore potentially at stake – this leads to many liberal arguments that the constitution should become codified to ensure the citizen's rights are completely protected, and not reliant on the government of the day's whim. The current UK constitution has also seen multiple years of stable, if not strong and decisive government, most recently including a Conservative /Liberal Democrat coalition in 2010, demonstrating that it is, in ...

  • 10. U.s. Constitution And The Constitution When the U.S. constitution was first signed 1776, it established a system of checks and balances, and a distinct separation of powers amongst the three branches of government. But, even with this system of checks and balances in place, it is evident that the 3 branches are not equal, and that congress is significantly more powerful than both the executive and judicial branches of government. Ultimately, the U.S. congress is the strongest branch of government because of its vast amount of enumerated powers including the elastic clause, which allows congress to pass all necessary and proper laws to carry out its enumerated powers, and due to judicial and executive branches' limited ability to check congress's power. In article 1, section 8 of the constitution; it establishes congress's enumerated powers. Just from this list of powers alone it is clear that the Framers intended for the legislative branch of government to be the most energetic and most powerful. Congress has the power to make laws, spend and raise money without the approval of the other branches of government, and to even declare war. Amongst these powers, congress also has many others, but these are just the main enumerated powers that congress has. Now, what makes congress so powerful in addition to its vast amount of enumerated powers is the fact that the other branches of government have relatively little power in checking the legislative branch and its powers. For example, under the power to make laws, the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The branches include the executive branch: the president, the legislative branch: congress and the judicial branch: the Supreme Court. The Constitution is referred to as a living document because it is open to constant change. Additionally, the Constitution is open to constant interpretation by the Supreme Court.

The first ten amendments to the Constitution, called the Bill of Rights, were ratified as a group by December 15, 1791(Bianco, 2013). Within the Bill of Rights only three amendments stand out in today world. Amendment One states that each citizen has the right to the freedom of religion, speech, and press and is allowed to assemble and petition the government (Bianco, 2013). While we all have the right of the freedom of religion we at the same token have taken religious freedoms a bit too far at times. We have removed it from schools, yet we allow religious rights to those that are terrorizing our country. The second amendment states that everyone has the right to have a gun (for lawful purposes) and the right to form as a militia (Bianco, 2013). While this amendment is good for law abiding citizens the argument remains for those that obtain guns illegally or possess weapons that should not be possessed by an ordinary person. Gun advocates debate that many of the issues with guns in America are not those of law abiding citizens but of those obtained illegally or in possession of those that should not have them. Amendment nine states that citizens hold rights that are not stated in the Constitution, and that those not stated have the right to be protected (Bianco, 2013).

  • 12. Theu.s. Constitution And The Constitution The U.S Constitution is one of the most, if not the most, important documents ever written in political history. The constitution established America's national government and provided the fundamental framework for the present and future legal parameters by which the american people would be governed by. The Constitution was officially signed September 17, 1787 in Philadelphia during a constitutional convention. In order for the constitution to actually be an official document, it had to have been ratified meaning that at least nine of the thirteen states present had to approve this document. It was easy for the first seven voters to make their decisions who were pro–constitution (federalists), but nevertheless, there were people, anti–federalists, who did not support the constitution. Although they did not want the Articles of Confederation in place, neither did they want to ratify the constitution because they opposed of having a strong central government. The ratification of the constitution changed the face of the United States and set forth a model for future documents to come. Federalists fought very hard against their opposing party. Why was it so important to the federalist to get this constitution ratified? The constitution not only meant something to the federalists, but without this ratification, it could have led to secession, and this ratification was needed to make improvements to the government.

  • 13. Texas Constitution Vs Us Constitution Essay The Texas Constitution and the United States Constitution have many similarities and differences. For example, they both have a Bill of Rights and both work hard to be sure to protect the rights of their citizens. They both deal with the privacy of their citizens but the Texas constitution is very verbose while the U.S. Constitution is very brief and to the point. The Texas Constitution also outlines strict laws regarding the states spending requirements. Both the Texas and the U.S. Constitution have a Bill of Rights, checks and balances, and have divided government via lower and higher powers. The U.S. Constitution was created to give the government power, in contrast the Texas constitution made sure that the main government does not have too much power over the Texas citizens. The founding fathers of the Texas constitution were wary of the government wielding too much power so they wanted to be careful to protect themselves. A similaritiy between the U.S. and Texas Constitutions include the fact that both have a Bill of Rights that protects the basic rights of the citizens. Such as how the Texas Constitution states that no one can be imprisoned for his or her debts.

  • 14. Arguments Against Codified Constitution UK is one of the only three regions which establish an uncodified constitution, which means its content is not written in a single document called the constitution. However, it has long been criticized that the constitution is ambiguous and uncertain. The main criteria of deciding to choose a codified or uncodified constitution is that which one would make the British constitution more effective. In this essay, I will focus on the constitution convention part and royal prerogative power part and discuss the arguments of for and against. On the one hand, the biggest prominent argument why adopting a codifying constitution is that it would make rules clear and easily accessible.

Although the codified constitution would allow for neutral interpretation by the Supreme Court, preferences and values may unavoidable affect their judgment. Another problem is the coordination of the current principle of parliamentary supremacy and the codified constitution. In the current system, the parliament is supreme. However, if a codified constitution is introduced, the parliamentary supremacy state will be challenged since the parliament is bound by the Supreme Court.

The Constitution Of The Texas Constitution Bigger is not always better, in the case of the Texas Constitution having the second longest state Constitution and the fourth most amended Constitution in the United States, makes it a difficult and complicated document. The Texas Constitution has been rewritten a total of six times since becoming independent from Mexico. The most recent being the Constitution of 1876, which is excessively detailed and exact due to the framers fear of a strong state government. The framers of the constitution placed strategically in the body of the Constitution rules restricting the government's power. Making it inconvenient and difficult to reform the current Texas Constitution. There are four key functions of a Constitution. One function is stating the source of power and authority for legitimate state political institutions. Also in a state Constitution is the delegation of power, which explains how powers are granted and used by institutions and individuals. Another function is to prevent the concentration of political power, by supplying political mechanism such as checks and balances. Lastly, a Constitution explains the limits of political power. The general basic of a state constitution is somewhat reflected in the current Texas Constitution. The framers of the Constitution of 1876 called for a strong popular control of the state government, public officials would be elected by the people.

  • 16. Framers Of The Constitution Just because something has been in practice for a long time doesn't necessarily mean it's right. The Constitution was signed in 1787, and it is still in practice today, with the addition of some amendments of course. This document created the government that now is in charge of America today, but that doesn't necessarily mean it created the best form of government for this country. The Framers of our Constitution could not have anticipated such major technological and social changes to the country, changes that make some of the ideas in our Constitution obsolete and ineffective.

It could be argued that while each state has different needs, it is more important to address the country as a whole, especially some states have beliefs that may be too extreme for practice. Though the question is not whether each state as 2018 is an interesting time in history.

Additionally, by showing the authority each part of the government holds, it is describing the organization and regulation of the government and how a society must conform. The Texas constitution has been reformed on multiple occasions and is troublesome to amend due to it being highly restrictive and detailed. The process on how to amend the Texas constitution, the attempts and failure of the constitutional reform in the 1970's and why Texas should adopt an easily accessible and flexible constitution are the primary focal points that will be addressed throughout this essay. Texas, amongst many of the state constitutions, has had a great deal of proposals to amend the state constitution. Reminiscing back to 1876 when the Texas constitution was adopted, there have been six hundred and sixty six prospective proposals to amending the constitution. However, of the six hundred and sixty six proposals, four hundred and eighty four have been ratified leaving the remaining few defeated by the Texas voters. Furthermore amending the Texas constitution, according to Article 17 of the Texas constitution involves applying a two–step process.

In Australia, the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900 (Imp) is the primary source by which society operates as an essentially free society. This paper seeks to establish that the functioning of such a society is dependent upon the existence of a legal framework supporting the rule of law, which is ultimately, an ideology. Analogically, the circumstances in which the application of the rule of law has either created a free society or undermined it will be explored and its purposes thus inferred to construct a definition of the 'rule of law' reflecting contemporary...

In asserting its judicial independence, the High Court in Plaintiff S157/2002 v Commonwealth stated it was 'the ultimate decision–maker in all matters where there is a contest.' Zywicki suggests that as long as the court follows precedent and thereby gives individuals more certainty of knowledge over the rights they possess, 'social coordination and economic wealth' will increase. The courts would not be relying on its discretion, but rules which will apply equally in the future. Thus, refining Dicey's definition, Zywicki views 'rule–based decision making' as a basic concept of the rule of law. Contrarily, Sykes suggests discretion may be a 'matter of necessary efficiency' which is more valuable than strictly adhering to the rule of law. The rule of law, then, does not encapsulate the absolute value of society. Sykes refers to police discretionary power; however, this concept of balancing the rule of law against other values may be extended to situations wherein exceptions and defences in law apply to certain groups. Consider the conferral of legal privilege and the requirement of confidentiality on legal practitioners in criminal law– whereas equality before the law operates in favour of the client, the law of legal privilege applies only to legal practitioners.

There are many uses for them, though often enough are used to outline laws and basic rights of the people under that government. Two very different, yet very alike constitutions are the Iroquois and the United States Constitutions. They have many differences, but just as many similarities. Often constitutions follow along the same lines, but the Iroquois and U.S. Constitutions were made quite differently. The cause of many differences is that they were made in different centuries. Things had changed during the time between these two constitutions. The Iroquois Constitution was made some time between the fifteenth and sixteenth century, while the U.S. Constitution was made September 17 in 1787. Not only is this the cause of many differences, but in my opinion it is the biggest difference. Another difference is how they were written.

Ever since people had trouble determining how it should be interpreted. When judges interpret the constitution, they are interpreting new facts to an established law that has been given meaning and has a historical background. Many people argue that it should be read how it was written who are known as Originalists. Then there are people who believe that the Constitution evolves as society does and they are known as Living Constitutionalists. Also, some feel that the goal is not do determine whether the constitution should be determined originally or as a living document, but to give meaning on the basis of facts.

Since the Roman Constitution had continually grown out of precedents, it was more like the British common law system than the statutory law system of the United States, even though the American Constitution's evolution throughout the years has seen a number of amendments. What defines a constitution for the United States as opposed to Rome seems to lie in the fact that one is written and codified, where as the other is an amalgamation of laws unofficially put together (Straumann pg.17).

Analysis Of The Constitution And The Constitution Dahl and the Constitution James Madison and the rest of the Founders of the Constitution undeniably founded a government that has withstood the test of time. The question that Robert Dahl poses in How Democratic Is the American Constitution? is whether this form of government and specifically the Constitution is as democratic as it should be and focuses on the Constitution's shortcomings. Dahl argues that the constitution is much less democratic than it ought to be. Madison, on the other hand, had doubts about the effectiveness and practicality of a purely democratic form of government and fought for a republic with checks on power. I believe that the Constitution should be evaluated according to how it serves the American population today. Americans are raised through public schooling and popular culture to view the Constitution as nearly infallible and those that wrote it as inspired. However, it is clearly not a perfect document. After the bill of rights there has come about seventeen additional amendments, or small changes by definition, to the original document.

  • 39. The Constitution And The American Constitution When our founding fathers decided to separate from England, it was understood that they would have to form their own government. Their first official form of government failed, but they learned from their mistakes and promptly followed up by making quite possibly the most successful constitution ever in 1776. To ensure that American citizens would enjoy their new freedom, our founders kept in mind what John Locke had said in his An Essay Concerning Human Understanding "life, liberty, and property," by coining "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" into the final draft of the constitution. The constitution is important because it "exists to protect the rights of all citizens, and has no legitimate power to deprive any citizen or... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Compared to the United States' 4,543 worded constitution, Texas' constitution has nearly twenty times more words (87,000) (Collier). The national constitution has never been replaced; however, it has been amended twenty–seven times. Texas's constitution has been replaced a total number of 5 times due to how detailed it is. Depending on the era, a constitution may have certain rules which as time progresses become more hurtful to its constituents. Only a century ago, women and people of color had little to no rights as a human being. It took America, "Land of the free", a little more than a century to allow women to vote. It is obvious that the ability to amend a constitution is a valuable one. The issue in Texas is that it has had a unique history and vast spread of land; therefore, it's constitution is quite detailed. Texas was once its own republic, it was one of the later states to be admitted to the United States, and that it occupies so much land that counties within its lines often differ drastically.

  • 40. The Constitution Of Nepal 2015 Imagine how would you feel if you waited for something for decades but, when it arrived, some of your brothers and sisters did not like it.Excitement and frustration simultaneously. That is the predicament which the Nepali people have been feeling today. The people waited for 65 years for a constitution written by their elected representatives. Such a charter –– Constitution of Nepal 2015 –– has been finally promulgated today, on 20 September. Most people seem happy but some are clearly agitated. The country had waited for this day since 1950. At the time of removing Rana oligarchy, King Tribhuvan had promised to call elections for a constituent assembly to draft a new constitution. But that did not transpire. Kings gifted the statute ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The second assembly, elected in 2013, has been able to sort out the issue providing for seven states, though not to everyone 's liking. Five things put pressure on Nepali leaders to deliver the constitution this time around. First, the Nepali Congress Party and the Communist Party of Nepal (UML), which preferred a few multi–ethnic states, secured nearly two–thirds majority in the assembly and formed a coalition government with smaller parties, enhacing their strength further. Thus they had the number and confidence to sail the charter to the finish line. Second, bothPrime Minister Sushil Koirala and UML leader KP Oli were personally men in a hurry. The ailing Koirala wanted to promulgate the statute on his watch. The ailing Oli wanted to become premier before his health marred his ambition. Therefore, Koirala and Oli promised support to each other to realize their respective ambitions, as quickly as possible. Third, the devastating chain quakes and aftershocks in April and May this year –– they killed nearly 10,000 people, destroyed nearly 7 billion rupees worth of property and affected one–third of the country 's population –– spurred the coalition to accelerate the pace.
