"constitutive autonomy"

This is a fairly meaningless term in English -- can someone explain if it has some technical meaning in this context? --Jfruh (talk) 03:34, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It means that the communities, that form the state, have a mirrored organisational framework, but the law and the internal organisation is determined by the local government of the communities, rather than determined top down from the federal government. Remark: I am not a specialist on these matters, this is just how I understand it. --Jringoot (talk) 11:35, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
