Constitution Of Venezuela (1936)
The Constitution of Venezuela of 1936 was approved on July 16, 1936 during the presidency of Eleazar López Contreras. Its importance is centered on being the first political constitution of the State after the dictatorship of Juan Vicente Gómez. Although it put an end to the personalist character of its predecessors, at the beginning it had more restrictive characteristics than the seven Gomez constitutions, until April 23, 1945, when President Isaías Medina Angarita promoted a reform, deepening the democratization process that had begun in 1936. On October 18, 1945, a ''coup d'état'' planned by the military sector and supported by Democratic Action overthrew Medina. The new Revolutionary Government Junta calls for constituent elections in 1946, which leads to the approval of the 1947 Constitution, repealing the 1936 Constitution. Characteristics * Senators and deputies are elected by second degree elections. They are in charge of electing the President of the Republic. ...

Congress Of Venezuela
The Congress of the Republic, also known as the National Congress, represented the Venezuelan Legislative Branch until 1999. It had a bicameral composition: a Chamber of Senators (or Senate) and a Chamber of Deputies. The last president of the Chamber of Senators (who, in turn, served as President of Congress) was Luis Alfonso Dávila, elected senator in the State of Anzoátegui by the Socialist-leaning party Movimiento Quinta República; the last president of the Chamber of Deputies (who also served as Vice President of Congress) was Henrique Capriles Radonski, who was elected deputy in the State of Zulia by the Christian Socialist party COPEI. Different sectors of Venezuelan political life, both in the opposition and in government, have raised the possibility that, at some point, two chambers will again function in the Venezuelan Legislative Branch, resuming their bicameral composition. However, so far these are only proposals that have been made. Official names According t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Democratic Action (Venezuela)
Democratic Action ( es, Acción Democrática, AD) is a Venezuelan social democratic and centre-left political party established in 1941. The party played an important role in the early years of Venezuelan democracy, leading the government during Venezuela's first democratic period (1945–1948). A decade of dictatorship under Marcos Pérez Jiménez followed, which saw AD excluded from power. With the advent of democracy in 1958, four Presidents of Venezuela came from Acción Democrática from the 1950s to the 1990s during the two-party period with COPEI. In the 2015 legislative elections held on 6 December, AD backed the opposition electoral alliance Democratic Unity Roundtable (MUD) which managed to grasp a supermajority. AD won 26 constituency representatives out of 167 seats in the unicameral National Assembly, making it the second-largest party in opposition to Nicolás Maduro. In July 2018, AD left the Democratic Unity Roundtable opposition coalition. The current Gene ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Constitutions Of Venezuela
A constitution is the aggregate of fundamental principles or established precedents that constitute the legal basis of a polity, organisation or other type of entity and commonly determine how that entity is to be governed. When these principles are written down into a single document or set of legal documents, those documents may be said to embody a ''written constitution''; if they are encompassed in a single comprehensive document, it is said to embody a ''codified constitution''. The Constitution of the United Kingdom is a notable example of an ''uncodified constitution''; it is instead written in numerous fundamental Acts of a legislature, court cases or treaties. Constitutions concern different levels of organizations, from sovereign countries to companies and unincorporated associations. A treaty which establishes an international organization is also its constitution, in that it would define how that organization is constituted. Within states, a constitution define ...

Constitution Of Venezuela (1947)
The Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela ( es, Constitución de la República Bolivariana de Venezuela (CRBV)) is the current and twenty-sixth constitution of Venezuela. It was drafted in mid-1999 by a constituent assembly that had been created by popular referendum. Adopted in December 1999, it replaced the 1961 Constitution, the longest-serving in Venezuelan history. It was primarily promoted by then President of Venezuela Hugo Chávez and thereafter received strong backing from diverse sectors, including figures involved in promulgating the 1961 constitution such as Luis Miquilena and Carlos Andrés Pérez. Chávez and his followers (''chavistas'') refer to the 1999 document as the "Constitución Bolivariana" (the "Bolivarian Constitution") because they assert that it is ideologically descended from the thinking and political philosophy of Simón Bolívar and Bolivarianism. Since the creation of the Constituent National Assembly in August 2017, the Bolivaria ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Constitution Of Venezuela Of 1953
The Constitution of Venezuela of 1953 (official name: Constitution of the Republic of Venezuela) was approved on April 11, 1953 by the National Constituent Assembly elected on November 30, 1952. Its fundamental conception established a democratic, alternative, elective, federal and representative State, aspects that were not complied with during the entire validity of said Constitution. This new constitution repealed the 1947 Constitution which had actually been repealed by act of force on November 24, 1948 after the ''coup d'état'' led by Marcos Pérez Jiménez. Some of the fundamental aspects in which the 1953 Constitution stands out is that it omitted in its preliminary declaration the ''representation of the Sovereign People of Venezuela'' and the figure of Simón Bolívar, which had been exalted in the previous constitution, as well as suppressing several of the aspects considered socialist of 1947. The transitory provisions established that for the period 1953-1958 the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
