One of the most brilliant moments of what has been called the “opening hour” of the constitutional State is the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen of 1789, adopted by the French National Assembly on August 26 of 1789. This essay highlights its historic importance reminding its development, its functions -critical, legitimizing, constitutive and pedagogical- and its contents, emphasizing some of the most important aspects of the text (Preamble and articles 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 16). It concludes synthesizing the elements that the Declaration brings to the “Constitutional State” from the analysis of Peter Häberle.Downloads
