    A moment ago you didn’t know that most countries have constitutions. Now you know all about judicial review?

      What are you talking about?

      Context is everything. OP wrote this:

      the kind of power top courts have in other countries.

      And I responded that in those other countries, the constitution doesn’t exist or is not the supreme law of the land.

        Which is it? Most countries don’t have a constitution, or most have judicial review?

          Most countries have a constitution that acts as a supreme law and have judicial review.

          As the OP suggested some countries don’t have judicial review, but they either have no constitution or it is not the supreme law.
