Abstract

ABSTRACT This article is focused on constitutional conventions pertaining to government formation in the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia. Using the concept of informal institutions, building on Anglo-Saxon scholarship complemented with Central European literature, the article approaches constitutional conventions as a special type of informal institution. Taking perspectives of political science and constitutional theory, and employing both formal analysis of constitutional articles as well as analysis of actual political-constitutional practice, the article has identified two or three constitutional conventions that have emerged in each country since 1990.
