The Constitutions of Clarendon were a set of legislative procedures passed by Henry II of England in 1164. The Constitutions were composed of 16 articles and represent an attempt to restrict ecclesiastical privileges and curb the power of the Church courts and the extent of Papal authority in England . In the anarchic conditions of Henry II s predecessor, Stephen of England Stephen , the church had extended its jurisdiction in the void. The Constitutions were claimed to restore the judicial customs observed during the reign of Henry I of England Henry I 1100 35 , while in fact they were a part of Henry II s larger expansion of royal jurisdiction into the Church and civil law, which was the defining aspect of his reign. The Constitutions take their name from Clarendon Palace , Wiltshire, the royal hunting lodge at which they were promulgated. Purposes The Constitutions primary goal was to deal with the controversial tissue of criminous clerks, or clergy who had committed a serious crime but escaped justice via ecclesiastical courts by benefit of Clergy . Unlike royal courts, ecclesiastical courts were more sympathetic to clergy. An ecclesiastical case of murder often ended with the defendant being defrocked dismissed from the priesthood . In a royal court, murder was often punished with mutilation or poo.

The http www.carmelites.org.au constitutions.htm Constitutions of the Carmelite Order stand as an expression of the ideals and spirit of the Order of Our Lady of Mount Carmel . Foundational sources for the Constitutions include the desert hermit vocation as exemplified in the life of the Prophet Elijah . For the Carmelite the contemplative vocation is exemplified par excellence in the life of the Theotokos Virgin Mary , beloved to the Order under the title of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. Additionally, the Carmelite Rule of St. Albert and the Book of the First Monks comprise fundamental points of reference in the life and spirituality of the Order. Between the 13th and 16th centuries the Order lost much of its vigour. The reform led by Teresa of vila and John of the Cross restored Carmelite life with a new joy and asceticism. The Discalced Carmelite renewal saw the Constitutions reaffirmed and strengthened. They were again revitalised under the directives of the Second Vatican Council . Two different approved texts of Constitutions exist today for the Discalced Carmelite Nuns those approved by Pope John Paul II December 8, 1990, and those approved by Pope John Paul II September 17, 1991.

Politics of El Salvador El Salvador has functioned under fifteen constitutions since it achieved History of El Salvador Independence independence from Spain in the early 19th century. The vast majority of these documents were drafted and promulgated without the benefit of broad popular input or electoral mandate. The nature of the country s elite dominated political system and the personalistic rule of presidents drawn from either the oligarchy or the military accounted for the relatively short life span of most of these documents. Some of them were drafted solely to provide a quasi legal basis for the extension of a president s term, whereas others were created to legitimize seizures of power on an ex post facto basis. ref name cs csref country elsalvador author Richard A.

The 1841 constitution was a liberal document that established bicameral legislature and set a two year term for the nation s president with no possibility of reelection.
