Sažetak
Court activism occurs when courts do not only dabble in pronouncing sentences but also want to take part in the creation of social policies and thus come into contact with many more people than when solving cases on an individual basis. Activism of a court is measured by the degree of its “authority” over the citizens, the legislature, and the administration. The author defines the concept and the elements of court activism on the example of several developed constitutional democracies. He concludes that court activism in the form it is known in the contemporary constitutional democracies, is lacking in Croatia.
