The 1980 Constitution innovates in many respects with respect to the Chilean "constitutionalism" that precedes it. Two of them, perhaps the least prominent, are the use of the expression "Government" instead of "President of the Republic" or "Executive Power", and the new order that it gives to the classic powers of the State, because, unlike the constitutions that precede it, it places, in the first place, the "Government" —in Chapter IV—, and then the National Congress —in its Chapter V—.
