Chilean Constitution: Evolution from 1822 to 1980
Constitution of 1822
Inspired by the Spanish Constitution of 1812, this constitution established:
- Sovereignty residing in citizens
- Nationality and fundamental public rights
- Age of majority at 25 years
- Individual property rights and freedom of correspondence
- A representative government with three independent powers (legislative, executive, and judicial)
Congress consisted of a Chamber of Deputies and a Chamber of Senators, who enjoyed parliamentary immunity. A Court of Overseas Representatives, composed of 100 individuals, was also established. The executive branch was headed by a Supreme Director, chosen by Congress, with a six-year term and the possibility of re-election for four more years. This text, given by Bernardo O’Higgins, faced political fatigue and became unpopular. The Supreme Director held regulatory authority and external sovereignty. Three ministers advised the Supreme Director, and their orders required a ministerial signature. The judiciary was hierarchically structured, with the Supreme Director having the power to appoint a successor in case of death.
This constitution marked progress in Chilean public law, establishing republican institutions and serving as the basis for the 1833 Constitution.
