Abstrakt
This review article provides an overview of research on constitutional conventions in the Czech Republic against the backdrop of the Anglo-Saxon scholarship on this theme. The article identifies three important gaps directly related to the study of constitutional conventions in the Czech Republic.
All of them are closely linked as they pertain to the very understanding of constitutional con ventions. First, there are varying definitions, including different terms used to denote constitutional conventions.
Second, scholars often disagree on how constitutional conventions are established. Moreover, often they are not concerned with this question at all.
Third, there is a great gap in research on sanctions for the breaching of constitutional conventions and rules enforcement. The Anglo-Saxon scholarship is instrumental in showing possible ways to fill the gaps.
