| Description | The book President of the Republic focuses on this top state body from the legal point of view. It is the first monograph about the president of the Czech Republic since the title Czechoslovak President of the Republic was released in the year 1934. This book copes with this state body in a very comprehensive way – election, oath, performance of the function, presidential liability, countersignature, representation of the president, his seat and flag. The essence of this book is created by the parts dedicated to rights and duties of the president. Cases which provoked legal or political discussions, like the dispute on ratification of the international treaties, on appointing the judges or on cooperation with the government, are mentioned as well. This book stands on the opinion that the president is an important both state and political person and not only a registrar. The position of the president towards the government is created not only legally but also politically. If the support of the government is weak, then the influence of the president rises. If there is a strong government, the factual position of the president is influenced. In the Czech Republic there occurs the determining factor that important political persons became Czech presidents. The foreword is written by the president of the Czech Republic Václav Klaus and president Miloš Zeman. |
