Description
Summary:In the article, published on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the enactment of the St. Vitus Day Constitution, the author deals with one of the key institutes of this document - freedom of the press. Based on discussions in the Constitutional Committee and the plenum of the Constituent Assembly, he concludes that the provisions of the St. Vitus Day Constitution on the press were created by the autocratization of certain provisions of the Constitution of Serbia of 1903. The article especially analyzes the restrictions of the press introduced by the transitional orders of the St. Vitus Day Constitution, through circumventing censorship and incrimination of "religious or tribal discord or hatred against the state".
