The political system of Kosovo belongs to the power sharing democracies. Indeed, it has all the characteristics of Consociational Democracy. In addition to that, minority veto rights are absolute and go above the aims of this type of democracy. As it is designed in current Constitutional arrangements, even a single word of Constitution can’t be changed without minorities’ vote. This is different from other Consociational Democracies, where minorities are entitled with selected veto power only regarding their vital interests, but they cannot block constitutional decision-making. Since Kosovo is among the youngest countries worldwide, this constitutional provision can be a heavy obstacle even in the state building efforts of majority. Therefore, in this article we will try to explain in depth this constitutional arrangement versus principles of sharing power systems and versus similar democracies in the region and wider. The doctrinal constitutional interpretation, descriptive and comparative methods are the main pillars of research methodology.

科索沃民主中的少数派否决权

科索沃的政治体系属于权力共享民主国家。实际上，它具有社团民主的所有特征。除此之外，少数民族的否决权是绝对的，并且超出了这种民主制的目标。按照现行宪法的规定，即使没有少数族裔的投票，宪法的一个字也无法更改。这与其他社团民主制不同，在其他社团民主制中，少数群体仅在其切身利益方面享有选择的否决权，但他们不能阻碍宪法决策。由于科索沃是世界上最年轻的国家之一，因此即使在多数国家的建设努力中，这项宪法规定也可能成为一个严重的障碍。因此，在本文中，我们将尝试深入解释这种宪政安排，共享动力系统的原则以及该地区乃至更广泛地区的类似民主国家。学说的宪法解释，描述性和比较性方法是研究方法论的主要支柱。
