How does a written constitution help reduce political disputes?

Correct answer: It provides a basis of pre-decided rules

Direct answer: B, it provides a basis of pre-decided rules. A constitution records the basic rules by which a country is governed. It explains the powers of institutions, the limits on government, and the rights of citizens. Therefore, when a disagreement arises, people and authorities can refer to the same accepted document instead of depending only on force, personal wishes, or changing political claims. It cannot remove every dispute, because disagreement is normal in a democracy, but it gives a lawful and peaceful method for settling disputes. A is wrong because constitutional rules do not end disagreements by force. C is wrong because opposition parties are an important part of democracy. D is wrong because citizens must be free to discuss public matters. Memory cue: a constitution is a common rulebook, not a weapon against debate.
