From Words to Worlds: Exploring Constitutional Functionality
This Book explores the multifaceted nature of constitutionalism and constitutional texts, examining their functions beyond simply structuring government. It traces the historical evolution of constitutions, highlighting the shift from pre-modern, unwritten customs to modern, written charters influenced by Enlightenment ideals. The text analyzes how constitutions aim to establish political order, express national aspirations, design governmental institutions, manage conflict, provide recognition to diverse groups, empower state actions, and, crucially, limit governmental power through constitutionalism. Ultimately, it investigates the theoretical underpinnings of these functions and the enduring importance of constitutional texts in shaping political societies worldwide, even considering the nuances of unwritten constitutions.
