Most of Constitutions of these countries state that it will be the Duty of their citizens to abide by their constitution and respect its ideals etc. It will be the duty of every citizen to defend the country and undergo military training; it will be the duty of every citizen to work in accordance with his abilities and to contribute by his work to the common weal; it shall be the duty to respect religions of others; it shall also be the duty of every citizen to pay the taxes as provided by the law etc.
It must be
noted that some of the countries including Venezuela prescribed the duties
not only to citizens but also to the foreigners under its constitution.
All the foreigners have the duties and the rights which its constitution
and the laws grant them; however, neither their rights nor their duties
can be greater than those of Venezuelans.
There are many other kinds of
duties. It will be very interesting to read and compare with the duties
incorporated in our constitution on the basis of historical, religious,
cultural, background.
