Basic Laws of Balisca

The Basic Laws of Balisca (Baliscano: Leys bàsiques de Balisca) are twenty constitutional laws of the Baliscan Confederation, some of which can only be changed by a supermajority vote in the Confederal Congress (with varying requirements for different Basic Laws and sections). Many of these laws deal with the protection of inalienable fundamental rights. The Basic Laws also deal with the scope and role of the principal confederal institutions, and with the relations between the state's authorities.

They also protect the country's civil rights, although some of these rights were earlier protected by the Constitutional Court of Balisca. The Basic Law: Human Dignity and Liberty recognizes autonomy and the right to resist, empowering the people to challenge legislation which contradicts it, as well as protection from Emergency Regulations. Unlike the remainder of the Baliscan Constitution, the Basic Laws are not revised every ten years.

Articles One through Ten were ratified as additions to the revolutionary Baliscan Constitution of 1921, and Articles Eleven through Twelve were been adopted in 1951 and 1981. Article Thirteen was adopted in the 2022 constitution of Balisca.
