The Question of Conducting Direct Elections of the President in the Czech Republic (A live issue for already 20 years)
2011
Abstrakt
This article is devoted to the standing of the President of the Republic in the contemporary Czech constitutional system, the manner of his election and current powers, and further to considerations about direct election from the year 1918 to the present, and to relevant amendments for change to the Constitution. Attention is also devoted to the difficulties which it is necessary, in the opinion of the author, to come to terms with during a potential change in the manner of the election of the President if the current balance of powers between the constitutional organs is to remain preserved.
