Sažetak
After the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the states of Central, East and South-East Europe went through revolutionary change in political being, which was necessarily also reflected in their constitutions. In those years the agenda was not only to change the political system or the ownership structure in the economy, but also to create a completely new society. In this context, enacting a constitution – a systemic document that contains the basic structures in which the exercise of political power is organized ; which provides for restraints by creating systems of checks and balances between different branches of government ; which offers human rights protection ; which dispenses political legitimacy ; which serves as a means of social integration – meant offering an answer to the question: how to express, in the form of fundamental norms, a new ideological understanding of society and the individual’s position in it, i.e., the changed attitude to government and, consequently, a new meaning of public life? This paper examines some specific features of these constitutions and the role of constitutional courts in their interpretation and, generally, in the constitutional development of the states that enacted them. They are viewed both in the light of European constitutional standards and of the German dogmatics of constitutional law, because most of these states used the German Basic Law from 1949 (Grundgesetz) as a model for their constitutions.
