Historical Overview of the Romanian Constitutionalism

subject

description

The history of the Romanian constitution and constitutionalism is closely linked to the 19th and 20th centuries. The 19th century meant the birth of the national unitary Romanian state and the building of the modern constitutional system by way of the massive constitutional transplant from the Western constitutional models. Breaking with the past was abrupt therefore just few ideas, institutions and practices remained as an organic linkage with the political and constitutional past.
