Moscow: ROSSPEN, 1998 655 p Serie: Politiologiia Rossii Hardcover. 14 x 21 cm ISBN: 5860041659 Language: Russian
The main subject of this book is constitutionalism in the world and in Russian history. The author analyzes the Russian experience of parliamentarianism and constitutionalism in the 19th-20th centuries, and compares it with the corresponding European experience, especially the problem of transition from an authoritarian political system to a democratic one. Much attention is paid to constitutional reforms, the institution of President, and potential conflict among the three major components of the Russian political system: The State Duma, the executive branch, and the president.
