"This important new addition to the Constitutional Systems of the World series focuses on the Constitution of the Czech Republic. Providing a contextual look at Czech constitutionalism and its underlying social development, it shows how the system is built on liberal democratic values. The book introduces the reader to the key institutions and their constitutional design.
