НАЦРТ УСТАВА РАДИВОЈА МИЛОЈКОВИЋА ИЗ 1867. ГОДИНЕ
RADIVOJE MILOJKOVIĆ’S 1867 CONSTITUTION DRAFT

Summary/Abstract: As an authoritative work of an excellently educated writer well acquainted with constitutional theory and foreign constitutional solutions, Milojković’s draft constitution is also a product of a serious political reasoning. That draft deserves a particular and very important role in the nineteenth century constitutional history of Serbia. It is an evidence of the character of constitutional transformation prepared during the last years of Prince Mihailo’s reign. Taken for the specimen during the enacting of Regent Constitution of 1869, which followed it in its basic concept, composition of constitutional solutions and framing of more important institutions, that draft determined adoption of the model of constitutional monarchy in Serbia. By catching sight of the Saxony’s Constitution of 1831, it transfers basic German constitutional model, supplemented by taking into consideration other European constitutions. Its distinction is an attempt to adapt foreign model mostly to particular circumstances of the country and to implement harmoniously new institutions in accordance to the Serbian constitutional tradition.
