Constitutional Law
Definition of Constitutional Law as it relates to People, Leaders
Constitutional Law refers to the study and interpretation of the fundamental principles governing the organization, powers, and conduct of government entities, including their relationships with one another and with private individuals. It is primarily concerned with the United States Constitution and its state counterparts, which establish the framework for governance and protect individual rights and liberties. Constitutional Law delves into questions surrounding the balance between authority vested in leaders and the rights afforded to people, with an emphasis on the role of judicial review in resolving disputes over constitutional interpretation.
