The general idea of a constitution and of constitutionalism originated with the ancient
Greeks and especially in the systematic, theoretical, normative, and descriptive writings of
Aristotle. Aristotle used the Greek word for constitution in several different senses. The
simplest and most neutral of them was "the arrangement of the offices in a state". In this
descriptive sense of the word, every state has a constitution, no matter how badly or
erratically governed it may be.
Every government has an organizational structure that defines the specific
responsibilities of its public officials. Some officials make the laws, others see to their
enforcement. Taxes must be collected and revenues spent. There must be provision for
preserving the domestic peace and providing for national defense.
