The constitution is the set of basic principles according to which a country is governed. When these principles are written down into a single collection or set of legal documents, those documents comprise a written constitution.
The Constitution is the set of guiding principles or laws all court decisions must abide by. The first twentieth century constitution for Egypt is that of 1923. It was called the constitution of 1923.
The 1923 Constitution, which lasted until 1952, provided for constitutional monarchy as the political system of the new nation. It set up a parliamentary system of government based on the Westminster model and provided for:
· A house of representatives and senate
· A cabinet that was accountable to the parliament
· Powers to the King to assemble or dissolve parliament
· Powers to parliament to summon itself in case it was not called into session in accordance with the schedule
Concerning the question is it better for the Egyptian government to write the constitution first or to have the president election first. This question is a dilemma for all the Egyptians to answer due to the ‘uprising events throughout all Egypt. I can’t find the right answer for such a crucial question because on one hand we need a president to lead the Egyptian ship through the high storm of the revolution, but this president without a constitution will be helpless. So the best way to resolve such a predicament is to resolve the problem of the constitution first as quickly as possible. We have the expert legislators who can do that job in very short time to achieve what we aim at so when the new president is elected he will find the constitution that will give him the power to carry out all his plans and promises.
