The second volume of the textbook by authors from the Department of Constitutional Law at Charles University in Prague brings together the entire constitutional law material in one volume. In addition to chapters on the development of Czechoslovak statehood, it particularly includes an explanation of individual institutes of valid constitutional law. The main theme is the Constitution of the Czech Republic and the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms.
