The Australian Constitution
Constitutionalism provides limits to governments, so that the liberties of the people can be protected. A Constitution defines the limits of power, and the source of authority in government. The Australian Constitution is a set of rules that has stood the test of time, legitimising the authority of the various arms of government, but spreading the power so that they cannot be concentrated in one person, or one particular office.
