What Should Serbian Constitution Be Like
What Should Serbian Constitution Be Like

Summary/Abstract: Even if it does meet all requirements set before it, this does not mean the Serbian Constitution will be ideal. De Smith claimed that there is no predefined stereotype of an ideal constitution. He believed the form and content of the constitution would depend, first, on the political balance of power at the moment in which the constitution is proclaimed, second, on the commonsensical understanding of how practically useful certain constitutional solutions are, third, on traditional patterns available to politicians and their advisors writing the constitution. DeGaulle was referring to the same thing in his famous 1946 Bayeux Speech, where he quoted the response of the wise Solon to the question of a Greek, inquiring which constitution was the best. Solon replied: "First tell me for which people and for what epoch."
