Abstract

Constitutional law conceptual space is part of conceptual space. The ontological structure of constitutional law consists of three layers — legal principles, positive constitutional law, traditions and practice. The third layer contains inter alia constitutional law ethics. Constitutional law conceptualism is a kind of legal positivism. Constitutional law conceptualism presupposes some limited influence in law and non exaggeration of significance of conceptual reality represented in signs and symbols as the text of the RF Constitution.
