Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents the first constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which was adopted in 1790. Like the federal Constitution, it established a framework for a republican form of government with separate executive, legislative, and judicial branches. Features include a Bill of Rights modeled after the federal version, which guarantees the rights of citizens in areas such as freedom of speech and religion and the right to bear arms. Like the U.S. Constitution, this document reflects the principles of the Enlightenment, balancing the powers of government to protect individual liberty while ensuring order and stability. One area where this constitution differs from the U.S. constitution is in the composition of the upper house of the legislature, which was not based on population but on geographic districts. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Pennsylvania, the development of American government, or the evolution of constitutional law.
