Explanation:
The Weimar Constitution had two inherent defects which made it unstable:
(i) The system of proportional representation finally led to a rule by coalitions because no single party managed to form the government. This affected the stability of the Weimar Constitution.
(ii) Another defect was Article 48. It gave the President the powers to impose emergency, suspend civil rights and rule by decree. Within its short life, the Weimar Republic saw twenty different cabinets lasting on an average 239 days, and a liberal use of Article 48.
