The Cradle of Laws

Dr. Robert Zbíral

doi:10.5771/9783748905899

Summary

In fast allen Staaten sind Gesetze die wichtigsten Instrumente, um soziale, wirtschaftliche oder institutionelle Veränderungen herbeizuführen. Traditionell werden zwar die Parlamente als der Ort der Gesetzgebung betrachtet, doch es ist oft die Exekutive, die die Ergebnisse des legislativen Spiels stärker beeinflusst. Statistische Daten zeigen, dass die von der Regierung eingebrachten Gesetzentwürfe in den meisten Fällen unverändert verabschiedet werden.

Das Werk untersucht im Detail, wie Gesetzesvorlagen innerhalb der Exekutive vorbereitet werden. Für diese genaue Analyse wurden sechs mitteleuropäische Länder ausgewählt (Österreich, Tschechische Republik, Deutschland, Ungarn, Polen, Slowakei).
