BASIC CHARACTERISTICS AND CONTENTS
OF THE 2006 SERBIAN CONSTITUION

Faculty of Law, University in Niš, Niš
The true value and firmness of the 2006 Constitution will be visible shortly
after the commencement of its enactment. In order for its liberal-democratic
orientation to be fully expressed, maintained, and developed, such that
it could stabilize the legal and political system of the Republic of Serbia,
the legislature and constitutional judiciary will have to fully support
it through their authoritative interpretations. The Constitution has established
the democratic system, but that system cannot survive by itself. Depending
on the enactment of the Constitution, which can be fully adequate, arbitrary,
or selective, legitimacy can persevere, but also fail, as was the ease
with the previous Serbian Constitution, Lack of legitimacy cannot be compensated
by a demagogical interpretation of the Constitutionlity.
Key words: Serbian new constitution, political agreement, constitutional
preamble, principles of constitution, human and minority rights and freedoms.
OSNOVNA OBELEŽJA I SADRŽINA USTAVA SRBIJE
OD 2006. GODINE
Pravna vrednost i čvrstina Ustava od 2006, pokazaće
se veoma brzo tokom njegove primene. Da bi se u potpunosti izrazila, očuvala
i razvila njegova liberalno-demokratska orijentacija, koja bi stabilizujuće
delovala na pravni i politički poredak Republike Srbije, neophodno je da
nju svojom autoritativnom interpretacijom podrže, pre svega, zakonodavna
i ustavnosudska vlast. Ustav je postavio demokratski poredak, ali se ovaj
ne može sam po sebi očuvati. Zavisno od primene Ustava, koja može biti
principijelna, proizvoljna ili selektivna, legitimnost se može održati,
ali i izgubiti, kao što je to bio slučaj sa prethodnim ustavnim aktom Srbije.
Nedostatak legitimnosti ne može se nadomestiti demagoškom interpretacijom
Ustava.
Ključne reči: novi Ustav Srbije, politički sporazum,
ustavna peambula, načela Ustava, ljudska i manjinska prava i slobode.
