Constitutionalism is a political and legal philosophy centered around the idea that a written constitution should serve as the supreme law, defining the structure, powers, and limits of government. It advocates for the rule of law, limiting government authority, protecting individual rights, and incorporating checks and balances to prevent the abuse of power. Emphasizing transparency and accountability, constitutionalism plays a crucial role in shaping democratic societies, ensuring the fair and just exercise of governmental powers while safeguarding individual liberties.
