Summary/Abstract: My study is looking for answers whether in these days Serbia belongs to the category of democratic countries as well as what changes could be observed in the political system. My basic hypothesis is that in 2008 there were changes that affected the current system as well. In examining the background to these transformations, I present the economic and social characteristics that have strong impact on political life. In what follows I briefly describe the political system in order to make it understandable why has a predominant party system evolved, what components it has had and how the levers of power have been used. Finally, I analyze the Serbian practice of populism, highlighting the social tensions that actually led to it.
