About this eBook

The Constitution of Finland, a pivotal document in the modern governance of Finland, encapsulates the nation's values, principles, and legal framework. Written in a clear and accessible literary style, the Constitution is not merely a legal text; it reflects the broader historical, cultural, and political context of Finland's journey towards independence and democracy. Enacted in 2000, this constitution draws upon rich traditions of Nordic governance while integrating contemporary principles to ensure a democratic society that respects human rights and the rule of law. Its structure is methodical, delineating the separation of powers, fundamental rights, and the functions of government in an increasingly globalized world. Created by the Government of Finland, this authoritative text is a product of Finland's commitment to democratic governance and civic responsibility. The evolution of the Constitution reflects the nation's historical struggles, including its fight for autonomy from Russia and the civil strife of the early 20th century. These experiences have deeply influenced the formulation of the Constitution, making it a testament to Finland's resilient democratic ethos. Readers interested in constitutional law, political science, or Finnish history will find the Constitution of Finland to be an essential read. It not only serves as a legal foundation but also as an insightful narrative revealing the values that underpin Finnish society. Engaging with this text will enhance understanding of Finland's unique position in the global context and the ongoing relevance of constitutional frameworks in fostering democracy.
