  • The Left and the 1972 Constitution: Marxism and State Power
    ! 8 The Left and the 1972 Constitution: Marxism and State Power g Kumar David ! ! The drafting of the 1972 Republican Constitution was dominated by the larger than life figure of Dr Colvin R. de Silva (hereafter Colvin), renowned lawyer and brilliant orator, neither of which counts for much for the purposes of this chapter. Colvin was also co-leader with Dr N.M. Perera (hereafter NM) of the Lanka Sama Samaja Party (LSSP), and that is the heart of the matter. Although it was known, rather proudly till recently in the party, as ‘Colvin’s Constitution,’ this terminology is emblematic; no, not just a Colvin phenomenon,1 it was a constitution to which the left parties, that is the LSSP and the Communist Party (CP), were inextricably bound. They cannot separate themselves from its conception, gestation and birth; it was theirs as much as it was the child of Mrs Bandaranaike. Neither can the left wholly brush aside the charge that its brainchild facilitated, to a degree, the enactment of a successor, the 1978 J.R. Jayewardene (hereafter JR) Constitution, which iniquity has yet to be exorcised a quarter of a century later. However, even sans this predecessor but with his 5/6th parliamentary majority, JR who had long been committed to a presidential system would in any case have enacted much the same constitution. But overt politicisation, dismantling of checks and balances, and the alienation of the Tamil minority afforded JR a useful platform to launch out from. The relationship of one constitution to the other is not my subject; my task is the affiliation of the LSSP-CP, their avowed Marxism, and the strategic thinking of the leaders to a constitution that can, at least in hindsight, be euphemistically described as controversial.
