Summary/Abstract: In the multitude of constitutions in the world there can be noticed several big families of constitutional systems which have been founded by particular systems, as veil as a number of other systems which by thier institutions have influenced the creation of constitutional systems of other countries. The author first talks about the five „big” constitutional systems i.e. those of G. Britain, USA, France, Switzerland and the USSR and in short exibits particular elements of these systems most influential on the development of constitutionality in the world. In the case of G. Britain it is the institution of the Parliament and the Cabinet, the limitation of the royal power, the inauguration of the political responsability of the government etc. The USA is a country with the oldest written constitution and the first contemporary federation, in which the principle of the separation of powers is most consequently applied and complience with the constitution applied for the first time. The influence of the French Revolution was great the world over; France is the country in which parlamentarism was first introduced in a republic; today’s mixed parlamentary-presidential system is also original. The Swiss system is featured primarily by the application of the principle of the unity of power and the application of direct democracy. The USSR as the first world socialist country', inaugurated a number of new features in the organization of government (soviet system, federation as a form of solving national question) and the organization of the economy (the dominant position of state property, centralized management of the economy). And among other countries there are some whose constitutional systems with their particular features have influenced others, as for example, Belgium, Sweden, FR Germany, Italy and a number of others that the author mentions. Finally, there is a short comment on the Yugoslav constitutional system, whose basic features the author sees in the communal organization, the organization of the federation, the delegate-assembly system and the inauguration of social ownership and self-management; many of them original, some of these elements of the constitutional system have a certain influence on other systems.
