What does a single constitutional document mean

The most prominent external feature of the constitution is its fundamental state, but in ancient Greece and Rome, legal documents that began to take on the characteristics of fundamental law and the concept of fundamental law that corresponded to them appeared. The famous ancient Greek scholar Aristotle, in his writings, spoke from time to time of the "Athenian Constitution", which at that time referred to the laws that defined the fundamental organization and competence of state institutions. By the time of the ancient Romans, there was a law on the fundamental organization of the state, which could only be changed with the involvement of the tribune, unlike the ordinary law that could be changed by the chief executive.

It can be said that the germ of a constitution was already in European antiquity.

For the Chinese, the constitution is a new type of law that was introduced from Europe and the United States to Japan, and from Japan to China. The constitution in the modern sense is the result of the universalization of commodity-money relations in history and the fact that there is democracy. The earliest unwritten constitution in history was the English Constitution, which was basically formed around 1688.

The earliest written constitution in history was the U.S. Constitution, adopted in 1787 and effective two years later; Later there were several constitutions that appeared in the course of the French Revolution. Since then, more than two centuries have passed, and the Constitution has evolved in many ways.

The Chinese came into contact with and gradually accepted the concept of modern constitution from the end of the 19th century. Although expressions such as "constitution" and "constitution" can also be found in ancient Chinese literature, they only have the meaning of norms or ordinary laws for governing the country, and have no meaning of the fundamental law of the country. During the Meiji Restoration, the Western concept of fundamental law was introduced to Japan, and Japanese scholars translated the fundamental law as "constitution" with reference to the references in ancient Chinese documents.

In the 80s of the 19th century, Chinese reformists and reformists put forward the idea of "establishing a constitution", and the word constitution in it was the result of "exporting to Japan for domestic sales". By 1908, the Qing Dynasty had promulgated the Outline of the King James Constitution, which for the first time in official Chinese literature had the meaning of a fundamental law.

For example: electoral law, organic law, etc

Constitutional law generally refers to a legal document that has constitutional norms and no branches, but does not have the highest legal effect in form, and has strict procedures for formulating and amending them. In China, the Election Law, the National Flag Law, the Law on Assemblies, Processions and Demonstrations, the Law on Regional National Autonomy, the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and so on are all constitutional laws.

Explanation of the term "constitutional document": Constitution: The constitution is an integral part of the law, which reflects the actual comparative relationship between various political forces, and stipulates the fundamental tasks and fundamental systems of the state, that is, the social system, the principles of the state system, the organization of state power, and the basic rights and obligations of citizens.

Constitutional laws refer to normative documents with constitutional norms as their content, enacted or approved by ordinary legislatures (and the formulation of the Constitution must be enacted and amended by the National People's Congress in accordance with special procedures).

Constitutional laws include two situations: one is ordinary laws with constitutional content, such as election laws, organic laws of state organs, etc., and the other is certain political documents, international agreements, and regional covenants with constitutional content that have been given legal force or reinterpreted by the national legislature in accordance with the law.

In statutory law countries such as China, constitutional laws are a supplement to the constitutional code, and sometimes they are an important form of expression of constitutional norms, and sometimes they are also specific manifestations of constitutional norms. In unwritten law countries, such as the United Kingdom, it is the basic basis for the existence and functioning of the country's constitutional system.

The legal effect of constitutional laws is not as good as that of constitutional codes, and the procedures for formulating and amending them are different from those of constitutional codes, and constitutional laws contain certain fundamental issues of the state.
