Summary/Abstract: The Constitution represents the fundamental law of the state, enshrining the basic principles of social organization. A central place in its content is occupied by democracy, recognized as one of the essential values of contemporary society. Considered the foundation of the democratic regime, the Constitution establishes the institutional framework of the state, guarantees fundamental human rights and freedoms, and possesses supreme legal authority, to which all other normative acts must conform – a defining feature of the rule-of-law state. The study of certain aspects regarding the role of the democratic constitution, in a context marked by profound changes, allowed the formulation of the hypothesis that its role in consolidating democracy is grounded in the genuine commitment of political actors to the principles specific to a democratic regime and in the establishment of an institutional system capable of meeting the requirements of the rule-of-law state. In this regard, it is recommended to promote, within the content of constitutional law, the most coherent and effective legal constructs so that the governance process clearly reflects the values and objectives of the democratic state.
