Summary/Abstract: Review of: Dienstbier, Jakub. Vrchní velení ozbrojeným silám z hlediska ústavního práva. First edition. Praha: Leges, 2023. 157 pages. Teoretik. ISBN 978-80-7502-689-7. In 2023, Leges published a monograph by Jakub Dienstbier, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces from the Perspective of Constitutional Law. With this monograph Dienstbier presented his interpretation of the Commander-in-Chief which represents an entirely new interpretative framework, hitherto unseen in czech doctrine. In this review I appreciate the depth of the theoretical framwork, comparative and historical dimension. I evalute Dienstbier's interpretive conclusions and analyse the methodology of theoretical definition and interpretive methods of constitutional law itself. Based on this analysis, I modify Dienstbier's methodology and propose a six-step structure for research of constitutional competencies.
