Deliberativni konstitucionalizam

Abstract

U ovom radu ću ispitati da li je deliberativni proces građana upotrebljiv i opravdan kao inovativan proces donošenja novog ustava, koji predstavlja izazov tradicionalnim načinima donošenja najvažnijih odluka. Pokazaću koje su mane i prednosti pomenutog procesa za one zajednice koje žele da stvore autentičan ustav koji će reflektovati potrebe građana i kulturno-istorijske specifičnosti, pritom legitimizirajući svoje institucije i poredak.

In this paper I will try to examine if deliberative process of citizens is applicable and justified as innovative constitutional-making process, which represents a challenge to the traditional decision-making processes regarding the most important issues. I will try to highlight all the bad-sides and good-sides of the mentioned process for those political communities that strive to create an authentic constitution, which will reflect citizens’ needs and cultural-historic specifics, while at the same time legitimizing their institutions and system.
