Summary/Abstract: Recognition of the rights and freedoms of the national communities in the Republic of North Macedonia presents a subject, namely matters for their regulation and for the important constitutional documents, approved in the Republic of North Macedonia. Particularly have to be underlined the criterion of historical development of the freedoms and rights of national communities, in this review we particularly emphasize. The tendency to regulate and accept the freedoms and rights of the communities in a more qualitative and more appropriate manner, is noted in the novelties of the second constitution of the SRM, adopted in the distant 1963 year. In this context, it is worth underlining the SRM Constitution of 1974, its innovations, which are very substantial and qualitative, in relation to the recognition, legal regulation and legal guarantee of the rights and freedom of national communities in the Republic of Macedonia. The Constitution of the SRM of 1974 presents the third consecutive Constitution and the last constitution adopted in the time of “socialist regime” in our country. Freedom to establish institutions and associations is an important freedom that is adequately recognized by the constitutional decisions of 1991. It is about the right to establish different institutions and associations in order to develop and cultivate the attributes of nationalities, these attributes should be developed and cultivated in order to express the identity of each nationality in the Republic of Macedonia. These innovations that relate to the freedom f establishment of institutions and associations are not and are not an integral part of education. They exist as independent organizational form with specific functions that pertain and are expressed in the cultural plan of each nationality.
