Constitutional Tradition

Constitutional Tradition is a foundational legal framework that originates from a nation’s historical development of constitutional norms, practices, and institutions, distinguishing itself from other constitutional frameworks by its continuity, unwritten conventions, and evolutionary adaptation rather than reliance solely on a single codified document.
