AUC IURIDICA

Acta Universitatis Carolinae Iuridica (AUC Iuridica) is a legal journal published since 1955, which presents longer essays as well as short articles on topics relevant for legal theory and international, European and Czech law. It also publishes works concerning current legislative problems.

Although intended primarily for domestic audience, AUC Iuridica is useful also for foreign experts, who can take advantage of summaries in foreign languages (English, German and French) and key words, which are systematically added to the main articles and essays.

The published articles are subject to peer reviews. If necessary, reviewed texts are sent back to the author for revision.

AUC Iuridica accepts contributions from any contributor on any current legal topic.

The journal is registered in the Czech National Bibliography (kept by the National Library of the Czech Republic) and in the Index to Foreign Legal Periodicals (kept by the American Association of Law Libraries).

The journal is archived in Portico.

abstract

Constitutional and administrative law are two related branches of law. But are the boundaries separating constitutional and administrative law truly clear? Many excellent experts in public law have already answered this question. However, as the legal system evolves, the answer to this question can be neither complete nor definitive. Nevertheless, it is possible to mark a number of bright and dark sides of the normative duality of constitutional and administrative law. Attention is focused on the constitutionalization of administrative law, but no less important is the deconstitutionalization of public administration in conditions of over-regulation connected with fragmentary and inconsistent legislation. However, it is not just a question of the integrity of the legal order. There are also a number of practical problems in the sphere of disputes resolution using dual argumentation.
