Constitutional and Administrative Law

My first assignment topic:

'When we discuss constitutional governments, then, we are really not talking about whether there exists a single, specific document; rather, we are interested in a kind of political behaviour, political culture, political tradition, or political history... . The forms may vary, but the behavioural results are the same: Limits are imposed upon what governments may do'

- Mahler, Gregory. Comparative Politics: An Institutional and Cross-National Approach. Upper Saddle River, New Jersey: Prentice Hall, 2000 P28

How does the synergy between constitutionalism and the rule of law produce a limited government which respects the sovereignty of the people?
