Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the research of the role of European political parties during the process of preparation of European constitution by the Convention on the future of Europe. Its objective is to verify two hypotheses. The first one assumes that European political parties (for capacity reasons the article mentions two strongest ones – the European people’s party and the Party of European Socialists), with regard to the convention procedure had a strong opportunity to influence the draft establishing the European constitution. Final draft of the Constitution, therefore, meets their expectations. The second hypothesis supposes that, with regard to the character of European party system, ideas of both parties, concerning future development of the European Union, will not be different but quite the contrary.
