Abstract

In the third chapter, I presented the development of western constitutionalism in the nineteenth century. During that period, the consolidation of the state’s institutional framework was remarkable; at the same time, due to a comprehensive set of guarantees and judicial remedies elaborated within the framework of liberal constitutionalism, individual liberties obtained a general acknowledgment and an effective protection. However, the progress of democratization was weak and uneven, and social imbalances persisted.
