Summary/Abstract: In this text author analyzed a procedure of making legitimation basis and making basic institutional solutions in the Constitution of the Republic of Serbia (2006). The Constitution has been adopted owing it to a conjunction of political circumstances, caused by an agreement of political parties, thus influencing the way of its making as well as the quality of its constitutional solutions. Through comparison of this Constitution with its predecessor-Constitution of 1990, the author came to conclusion that it is not a new basic legal constitution, but it is a more modified and re- designed old Constitution. As such, it does not create possibility for building of a political community with fundamental democratic principles and values.
