This includes statutes constituciojes or localregulations, delegated legislation, and even international covenants. This misunderstanding fostered, from the very beginning, an excessive dependency on the federal judiciary for the enforcement of fundamental rights.

There are also a few ideas regarding the consistency in the constitutional interpretation that should be considered. Because it could appeal laz both modernizers and traditionalists, paternalistic discretionary justice seemed the ideal consgituciones to the admittedly complex and contradictory legitimation problems generated by a wildly heterogenous society.
But when a judge attacks a law in the course of an obscure argument in a particular case, he partly hides the importance of his attack from the public observation. For this reason the enforcement of fundamental rights must be guaranteed in spite of a careless legislative, a negligent administration, an arbitrary trial judge, or a combination of all of the above.
