Description This article deals with the enabling constitutional act, which was one of the lawmaking-pillars of the Second Czech-Slovak Republic and the wartime Protectorate. This article also summarizes previous enabling legislation in Czech legal history and it is focused on adoption of the enabling constitutional act in 1938 mainly according to a provision of Permanent Committee on the dissolution of the mandates of some members of the National Assembly. The role of the enabling constitutional act in Czechoslovak legal system after the WWII was determined by presidential decree No. 11/1944 concerning the Restoration of Legal Order and also by Czechoslovak socialist constitution of 1960.
