explain here the meaning of formal constitution
Answers
Answer:
Two types of Constitutions exists, the written and the unwritten. For Example, India has the largest written Constitution while Israel and New Zealand have no written Constitution. We cannot claim that the written is better than the unwritten when both are working well and serving their purposes.
Explanation:
A formal constitution in this passage is about the more than hundred countries which claim to be under a political government with a system of Democracy which is partial democracy. Some of the salient features of democracy will be present and some missing. This can be due to oversight or intentional. It does not fit either as a written or an unwritten constitution. It is a constitution of rules that are gathered from various documents. The documents are written down in several official documents and not properly compiled. As the name suggests, it is a formality with the motive of presenting themselves as a nation of democracy to the rest of the world and maintain their position and status. It is better to have a comprehensive Constitution rather than a formal constitution.
N.B. A formal constitution should not be confused with the formal amendment of the Constitution.
