Sažetak

The French 5th Republic makes a good instance to demonstrate how the appliacation of the constitutional institutions could change the party system of a state. The constitutional arsenal of the new governmental organization, the semi-presidential system vhich was adopted by the French Constitution of 1958 has brought a permanent change in the model of a party System. In the initial period of the 5th Republic (1958-1962) De Gaulle would apply his special constitutional powers for political emergencies to the constitutional institutions which are based on the electorat and thus produce a parliamentary majority. The permanent change of the French party system is a consequence of the usage of referenda, dissolution of the National assembly, a direct election of the President of Republic and the electoral system of absolute majority. Presidential elections and the use of referenda during the De Gaulle s presidential mandate have strongly influenced the process of bipolarization, a transformation of the system of numerous, weak parties of a loose discipline, into the system of parties associated into the two great coallitions: of the left and of the right. In turn the reverse influence of the thus changed party system would became decisive for the reality of functioning of the French constitutional system.
