It would be constructed by “the people” rather than the current one,
which was made during the military govt in 1980. That one was written by right leaning legal professionals, and approved in a plebiscite (during dictatorship), then was modified several times after 1990, and even re-signed by the main political parties in 2005. The new one is going to start with a blank sheet, so we do not know what it will end up containing. If it is not approved, the current constitution will stay.
Most people only know that it is “Pinochet’s constitution”, and has protections for the free market, private health care, and education.
