The Constitution as Law without Gaps
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
The article deals with the new paradigm of constitutional law which has replaced the one inherited from the Soviet and early post-Soviet period. This new paradigm is characterised by, inter alia, the elevation of the acts of the Constitutional Court to the level of sources of constitutional law; elimination from the system of sources of constitutional law of all other sources except the original Constitutional document (as later amended) and the acts of the Constitutional Court. This paradigm is enforced by the arguments that the Constitution is not a text but that what is behind the respective text and what this text represents. The Constitution, perceived in such way, is free of gaps. Examples from the Constitutional Courts jurisprudence are provided.
