The Features of the Mexican Constitution
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
In Latin America there are two models of constitutions - the liberal and the most stable Constitution of the Argentine Nation, drafted in 1853, (which was discussed in our previous article) and one of the most radical, comprehensive and unstable – the Constitution of the United Mexican States of 1917. Although both of them were constructed under the model of the US constitution with the influence of Spanish and French constitutionalism and local national traditions, the Argentine constitutionalism has developed on the grounds of the American legal system, as the Mexican one still could not break with the civil law tradition.
