Abstract

The Chilean Constitution of 1980 contains several norms, and, given their content, they altogether make up the so called "economical constitution". Besides giving a definition of the role of the economical agents, especially the State and citizens, the Constitution, systematically, though not organically, designs the grounds and control means to have a stable monetary economy. Therefore, as of 1990, when the Constitution fully became in force, in comparison to precedent times, Chile has shown low and regular inflation levels. This phenomenon, in a great extent, is due to the incidence of Law.
