A CONSTITUTION CAN BE EFFECTIVE IF:
1.If it was drawn up by the people who enjoyed immense public credibility and who had the capacity to negotiate the command and self respect of a wide cross section of society and who were able to convince people the constitution was not an aggrandisement of their personal power.
2.Any group feels their identity being stiffled he she will have no reason to abide by the constitution.
3.No single group can subvert the constitution,one way of such intelligent designing of constitution is to ensure thst no single institution acquires monopoly of power.The indian constitution for example horizontally fragments power across different institution like the legislature,executive and judiciary.Sometimes even independent statutory bodies like election commission.
4.Strike the right balance between certain values norms and procedure as authoritative and at the same time allow enough flexibility to adapt to cganging needs and circumstances.Too rigid a constitution is likely to break under the weight of change,too flexible will give no security or identity to people.
=effectiveness of a constitution is the balance arrangement of the institutions of a govt,this led to the adoption of the parliamentary form and the federal arrangement which would distribute govt, powers between legislative and executive on one hand and between the state and central govt on other hand
THE INDIAN CONSTITUTION IS DESCRIBED AS A LIVING DOCUMENT BY STRIKING A BALANCE BETWEEN THE POSSIBILITY TO CHANGE PROVISIONS AND THE LIMITS ON SUCH CHANGES,THE CONSTITUTION HAS ENSURED THAT IT WILL SURVIVE AS A DOCUMENT RESPECTED BY THE PEOPLE.
