Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Constitution, which characterizes not only by their historical continuity but also by some varieties and developments in their content, has experienced its development from its ancient, modern and contemporary forms. It is worth further studying on the thought that democracy and constitutionalism are the factors of constitution. The traditional concept of constitution is not satisfying any longer. The concept should reflect the nature of constitution, that is, establishing the forms of state power and regulating its function. The new concept will work properly both on the theory of constitution and its practice.
