Abstract
This text presents a brief look into the history of the creation of the Constitution of the Slovak Republic, which recently celebrated its thirtieth anniversary. The author primarily focuses on the connection between the constitution-making and the disintegration of the Czechoslovak federation. From historical observations, he concludes that in the region of Central and Eastern Europe, the ethnic-cultural conception of the nation is still more preferred than the civic one. Then he considers whether the new Slovak Constitution was the work of political elites rather than the nation. In contrast to the contemporary Slovak constitutional theory, the author concludes the role of the nation in constitution-making was virtually non-existent, and yet, it is the nation which bears the ultimate responsibility for the constitution’s protection.
