1999 Venezuela Constitution

The 1999 Venezuelan constitution is an interesting hybrid of jurisprudential and political norms drawn from sources as wide as Bolivar's own writings on constitutionality and popular sovereignty, Jose Marti, the Peruvian Marxist Jose Mariategui, J.V. Stalin and E. Pashukanis . It is essentially a Bolivarian-Marxist charter, incorporating elements of popular sovereignty (such as frequent referenda), social responsibilities, the right to rebel against injustice and the eternal independence of the republic from foreign domination.
