Abstract:

The Constitution of North Carolina was written in 1868 while the state was still under military rule following the Civil War. As it marks its one hundredth anniversary, many, including the State Constitution Study Commission, feel it should be rewritten because of its many archaic provisions and dozens of amendments added over the years. The article includes some of the major revision recommendations.
