Bill of Rights  

Définition(s)

  • Although England first enacted a Bill of Rights in 1688, those rights belonged to Parliament, not to the people; their rights and their constitution itself were at the mercy of Parliament—the House of Lords, the House of Commons, and the monarch. Another more meaningful Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the U.S.. Constitution, was ratified in 1791, two years after the Constitution became the nation's supreme law.
