"The U. S. Constitution is called a living document because it was created with the purpose of being able to grow and change (just like a living thing) with the changing needs of the country. Through the addition of amendments, the constitution is able to adapt in ways that are needed for the nation to succeed."

I don't feel that it is necessary for other countries to have a 'living document', but it wouldn't be a bad idea.
