Abstract

In recent years, Egypt has experienced significant political transitions characterized by constitutional reforms aimed at strengthening legal institutions and ensuring the rule of law. The analysis will draw from existing literature and legal precedents to construct an analytical model examining the dynamics of constitutional governance and legal authority. This framework offers a comprehensive lens for assessing the efficacy of constitutional measures and legal structures in fostering stable governance transitions. Policy-makers should prioritise strengthening independent judiciaries and enhancing civic education to support the effective implementation of constitutional provisions.
