Various historical and current files can be downloaded as text or Adobe-type files, including the text of the Constitution, the amendments, and proposed but unratified amendments.

Thus, this site has less of an emphasis on laws between countries (international law), but rather laws within countries - which either draw directly or indirectly from their various constitutions. (
