Sažetak
The author poses the question of how big the real power of elected representatives of national communities is in representing those same communities. The influence and power of national minorities representatives are (very) limited. Elected representatives have very important instrument for defending national minority rights: the possibility of a veto. But it refers only to laws which in whole deal with minorities rights. A considerable number of laws, which deal with minorities rights are included in numerous larger laws concerning different areas. However, the power of elected representatives of national minorities is very limited. They can only count on benevolent relations with the majority nation and the efficiency of proper assurances. That is the main reason why it is not unusual that minority communities demand repairs to systematic law in which the whole spectrum of" special" national minorities rights, including political participation rights, will be completely regulated.
