Summary/Abstract: The political developments that are taking place in our society are being interpreted in different ways. In addition, our political life here and now is marked by a constitutional crisis. The crisis has taken hold not of the pluralistic parliamentarian republic but of the single-party state belonging to the real socialist model. The basic problem that sums up the essence of the crisis is by which means the misting constitutions is to be changed: whether by institutional or noninstitutional means? How to achieve a peaceful transition from the constitutional model of a single-party slate into a liberal democratic republic? The central problem of the functioning of every liberal-democratic system is the balance between the liberal and the democratic principle, i.e. the question about what democratic decisions can be made if the whole range of forms of social living that on the basis of civil agreement are not subject to majority decision, has been radically depoliticized.
