If the Constituent Assembly had only experts and no representatives, what weakness could have increased in constitution-making?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Technical knowledge would remain, but democratic acceptance could weaken.

Direct answer: A is correct. Experts are useful because they can contribute legal, administrative, and institutional knowledge. However, a Constitution also affects ordinary citizens and diverse communities, so people need some form of representation in the process. Without representatives, important social experiences and public concerns might be missing, and the final document could appear distant from the people whose lives it governs. A is correct because it preserves the value of expertise while identifying the loss of democratic legitimacy and acceptance. B is wrong because popularity does not automatically follow from expert control. C is wrong because excluding representatives would not mean every citizen writes the text directly. D is wrong because experts can also disagree, so debate would still be needed. Memory cue: expertise without representation can be efficient but insufficiently democratic.
