Question

Constitutional government means

Options

a

a representative government of a nation with federal structure

b

a government whose Head enjoys nominal powers

c

a government whose Head enjoys real powers

d

a government limited by the terms of the Constitution

Answer

Explanation

Option (d) is correct.

A constitutional government is inherently a limited government. It operates within a framework of rules (the Constitution) that explicitly define and restrict the powers of the state to protect individual liberties. It does not strictly necessitate a federal structure or specify the exact powers of the Head of State.

Constitutionalism is fundamentally synonymous with limited government and the rule of law.

Answer: (d).
