Abstract

This paper analyzes the constitutional system of the Republic of Serbia that has been established by the Constitution of 2006. That Constitution has accepted principles of a liberal-democratic model of constitutionalism and a “rationalized” parliamentarianism. Special attention is paid to the constitutional development of Serbia in last two centuries. Questions that are analyzed in detail are the principles of the Constitution of Serbia of 2006, human and minority rights, position and relations of central authorities and territorial organization of the state. In the end, there are the appropriate conclusions and proposals for improving of the existing constitutional framework.
