Extract

The Argentine Constitution was adopted in 1853 after years of domestic turmoil which ended with the defeat of Juan Manuel de Rosas, an authoritarian caudillo from the Province of Buenos Aires, by Justo José de Urquiza y García. This Constitution, with the amendments that will be explained below, still remains in force.
