Abstract
This article examines the extent to which constitutional law is conditioned by political power and by the concrete structure of the state. It argues that constitutional norms cannot be understood in isolation from the historical, ideological, and institutional context in which they operate. The paper studies how political forces shape the meaning, scope, and effectiveness of constitutional rules, especially in states where formal institutions coexist with strong political constraints. It thus presents constitutional law not as a purely autonomous legal order, but as a field deeply marked by relations of power.
