Abstract:
Doyen Vedel succeeded in striking the right balance to ease the tension between constitutional justice and democracy through the theory of the ‘ »lit de justice ». However, it has recently been pointed out that this solution « no longer seems sufficient » for some constitutionalists, who are campaigning for other, more radical methods that would ensure that the people or their representatives have the « dernier mot ». Yet it seems that such proposals are primarily the result of the fact that the theory of the « lit de justice » now seems obsolete.
