Decolonization (US) or decolonisation (UK) is the undoing of colonialism, where a nation establishes and maintains its domination over dependent territories. The Oxford English Dictionary defines decolonization as "the withdrawal from its colonies of a colonial power; the acquisition of political or economic independence by such colonies."[1] The term refers particularly to the dismantlement, in the years after World War II, of the colonial empires established prior to World War I throughout the world. However, decolonization not only refers to the complete "removal of the domination of non-indigenous forces" within the geographical space and different institutions of the colonized, but it also refers to the "decolonizing of the mind" from the colonizers' ideas that made the colonized feel inferior.<span>[2]</span>
It is said that colonialism is an outgrowth of nationalism. For example, once the people in leading industrial powers started to strongly identify as British, French, German, American or Japanese (to name the most famous colonialists), they fell in love with the idea of planting their national flags all over the map, hence "Empire".
It is also believed that anti-colonialism is also an outgrowth of <em>nationalism</em>. When people from Asia, Africa and Latin America started to strongly identify as Indian, Egyptian, Argentinian etc. (to name some of the opressed countries), they started to value their own country and fell in love with it and wanted to replace the foreing flags where they belonged.
So we can say that a common ideal was nationalism.
This provision accomplishes "providing a framework for government" which is one of the goals of constitution.

<u>Explanation:</u>
The legislature is one of the 'three organs of the government'. The other two are Executive and the Judiciary.
In the 'Presidential form of government', the Legislature has no control over the working of the Executives.
But still it occupies an eminent position in the democratic political system.
In a representative democracy, the people of the state are represented by their elected representatives in the legislature.
The peoples’ views and opinions are conveyed through their representatives during the process of law making, this setup gives legitimacy to the law making process.
