Jakie konstytucje dla państw w okresie przemian ustrojowych? (Tunezja i Egipt)
What Constitutions for the Countries in Transition? (Tunisia and Egypt)

Summary/Abstract: In the recent 40 years, around 90 countries have tried — with more or less success — to moveaway from their autocratic past and to follow the path to democracy. In 2011, quite unexpectedly, such a chance arose for West African countries, including Egypt and Tunisia. The authorpresents the democratic constitutional drafting which is most desirable for those countries, Muslimand Arabic at the same time. For this purpose he also examines the structural factors, including the Sunni Islam, the level of respect for the rule of law, economic situation and the state of political elites. Nevertheless, the author focuses his attention on the model of democratic transition in both countries, including the starting point and the course of transition.
