Sažetak
The analysis of the constitutional practice of the United States, based on the concrete example of the 1995-96 budget crisis, leads the author to conclude that the American constitutional system is stable. An incredible tenacity and longevity of the constitutional model of the division of power, established on the Constitution of 1787, has been affirmed. The system has evolved through practice, increasingly so within the democratic political atmosphere of American political process. Americans are putting to test the limits of their constitutional frame's efficiency. This framework works. Most Americans still think that the price they have been paying is worth the purpose: the prevention of power getting concentrated in the hands of one individual or an institution.
