Adopted in 1999, it was drafted under the leadership of Hugo Chávez, who aimed to create a more inclusive political system. The Constitution emphasizes social justice, human rights, and the importance of participatory democracy. This Constitution establishes a framework for the separation of powers among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. It also recognizes various rights, including economic, social, and cultural rights, reflecting the country's commitment to addressing inequality and promoting the welfare of its citizens.
