Constitutional Autocracy believes that an individual should rule, but should be restricted by a constitution. Constitutional Autocracy is distinguished from Semi-Constitutional Monarchism in that in a Constitutional Autocracy, there is no parliament. Nonetheless Constitutional Autocracy is usually considered a type of Constitutional Monarchy.
Constitutional Autocracy views the constitution as the highest authority, believes it should never be altered, and sees government as necessary to enforce its rule. Instead of believing absolute power corrupts, he believes competing powers corrupt; and sees that a separation of powers, would only lead the various groups to clash, bribe, and blackmail each-other for power over one-another, ending with the victors forming a shadow government. Constitutional Autocracy assumes that under democracy, the legitimacy of the constitution can be undermined, through the guise of popular will. Along with this worry, he sees those who count the votes, to be the true wielders of democratic power, putting the life of the constitution into the hands of a deep-state.
Constitutional Autocrats usually believe that the military should swear allegiance to the constitution, and be required to overthrow the ruler if he is ever to go against it. They also tend to believe that within the constitution, should be the right (or even the mandate) to own a copy of the constitution and to own firearms, in order to enforce the constitution; given the event that the military does not defend it, or does not step down post-overthrowing.
