ABSTRACT: The contribution presented in this research
explores the trajectories of constitutionalism in its history,
which accompanies the most relevant events of the modern
era. The author has set out to highlight the interrelations of
social factors, the interests of natural and legal persons, the
role of states and political groups and parties, and ideological
anchors, as the main elements that lead to constitutional texts
being placed in the leading role in the social fabric where they
are today. The most novel expressions of constitutionalism are
explored, among which the definition and recognition of the
rights of nature constitute one of the most novel and important
forms of its expression.
KEYWORDS: Constitution, political system, law, human rights.

socialisation of experiences that find in technologies and social
networks a scope that was unimaginable only decades ago. This
has an impact on the perception and assumption of human
rights as an amplified claim of individuals.
In what follows, we will now move through some
of the main threads that run through the state of the art of
constitutionalism studies.
The theoretical study of constitutionalism reveals its
