Main Challenges for Democracy..

Professor Jerzy Jaskiernia is one of the most outstanding contemporary constitutionalists, not only in the national but also international dimension. The study summarizes 50 years of his public activity - scientific, organizational, and political. A measure of Professor Jaskiernia`s impressive achievements in these areas is the list of the Jubilarian`s achievements included in the book. The publication includes fifty-two papers prepared by fifty-six scientists affiliated with research centers in Poland and recognized foreign constitutionalists representing universities in Germany, Lithuania, Serbia, Slovakia, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Such a wide circle of Authors, including not only the friends and colleagues of the Jubilarian, his students, and associates but also other people who came into contact with Professor Jaskiernia during his public activity, is unequivocal proof of respect and gratitude for his achievements, going far beyond the achievements of the legal community.
