Constitutional Law, or Basic Law, creates the operation of a government, defining its powers, and also establishes the limits on the government’s exercise of its powers over its people. A constitution sets forth the fundamental principles and the relationships between the state and the citizens of that state. In the United States, citizens have rights both under individual state and federal Constitutions. A purpose of the U.S. Constitution is to protect the rights of minorities against the fiats of the majority.
