==Statute of Liberties== | |||
The Statute of Liberties (''Fîlon Helvikorskya'') is a statement of the {{wp|civil rights}} and {{wp|civil liberties|freedoms}} guaranteed to Kiravians by the federal government. Although it subsists as an independent document separate from the Kiravian constitution, it is nonetheless a core component of Kiravian constitutional law. The two documents are codependent, referencing one another in numerous clauses, and most Kiravian constitutional scholars are of the opinion that neither document is supreme over the other (though dissenting opinions have been published). | |||
The first incarnation of the Statute of Liberties was the Charter of Guarantees (''Sávren Advartoskya''), which was promulgated by the Second Inter-Republican Council several days after the Confederative Covenant. The Confederative Covenant had established confederal courts to adjudicate cases arising from interstate and foreign commerce, disputes among the various states and citizens of different states, and maritime affairs; and the Charter of Guarantees was written to define the rights accorded to parties before these courts. | |||
The Kiravian Union officially considered the Statute of Liberties to have become defunct with the adoption of the new Kirosocialist constitution, and replaced it with a Declaration of the Rights of the People that included many {{wp|positive rights}}, such as a right to livelihood, while omitting or narrowing other rights deemed incompatible with the socialist project. | |||
The Statute of Liberties was restored by the National Renewal Movement in 211XX. | |||
