Summary/Abstract: In the article the author deals with the persisting impossibility of Serbian political elite to build constitutional state. Instead of developing constitutional state, modern independent Serbia in her century and a half long history witnessed only various constitutional facades for either autocracy or partocracy. After experiencing communism in so-called Second Yugoslavia, Serbian political elite proved to be most devoted to the principle of partocracy, which survived the autocratic challenges of Slobodan Milošević (1997–2000) and Zoran Đinđić (2000–2003), never facing any real constitutional “threat”. Therefore, the real “crises of state” was always perceived by this elite as combination of dangers, coming from “above” (i.e. from federal structures such as Yugoslavia or supranational organizations such as European Union) or from “beneath” (i.e. from various self-organized social groups opposed to the ruling party/parties). In the article, the author argues that the most important source of the “crisis of state” in Serbia was and is mentioned persisting impossibility of Serbian political elite to build constitutional state.
