The aim of the paper is to analyse the legal position of the Central Electoral Commission in the electoral law of the Republic of Lithuania. The considerations focus, firstly, on defining the status of this body, and secondly, on identifying the tasks imposed by the legislator on the CEC. In the second case, the analysis focuses only on the general outline of the Commission’s tasks, as their detailed analysis would require the preparation of a separate study. The analysis also aimes at verifying whether the Lithuanian legislator, when shaping the regulations concerning the Commission, took into account the European standards for the organisation and functioning of central electoral bodies, as defined by the Venice Commission. On the basis of the conducted research work, an attempt was made to determine to which of the electoral administration models the Lithuanian model should be included, taking into account the location and tasks of the CEC. It should be added that the analysis of the above issues seems justified, as so far this issue has not been comprehensively discussed in the Polish legal or political science literature, and moreover, it has rarely been discussed in the Lithuanian literature. In order to achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the formal and legal method was used and the doctrinal work was analysed. In addition, a comparative legal method was used to show the differences and similarities between the central authorities of other countries, and an empirical method was used to outline the practical aspects of the functioning of the CEC.

This paper presents the institution of national referendums in modern Uzbekistan, which in 1991 became an independent and sovereign state in the wake ofthe collapse of the Soviet Union. It discusses the legislative regulations of referendums stipulated in the Constitution of Uzbekistan of 1992 and the 1992 Law. In the analysis ofthe latter, particular attention is given to such elements as the right to vote, the principle of transparency, the entities authorised to take the initiative to hold a referendum, the authorities responsible for the preparation and holding of a referendum and the criteria for its validity. There were only four referenda held in Uzbekistan in the period of concern: two in 1991, and one in 1995 and 2002 each. It is concluded that national referendums in Uzbekistan play an essential role, providing the only fully democratic form of citizens expressing their preferences in this authoritarian state.

W artykule przedstawiono instytucję referendum ogólnokrajowego we współczesnym Uzbekistanie, który po rozpadzie Związku Radzieckiego jest od 1991 r. niepodległym i suwerennym państwem. W dalszej części omówiono regulacje prawne dotyczące referendum, zawarte w Konstytucji Uzbekistanu z 1992 r. i ustawie z 1992 r. Analizując ustawę zwrócono uwagę zwłaszcza na takie elementy, jak czynne prawo wyborcze, zasadę jawności, podmioty uprawnione do wystąpienia z inicjatywą przeprowadzenia referendum, organy odpowiedzialne za przygotowanie i przeprowadzenie referendum oraz kryteria ważności referendum. W omawianym okresie w Uzbekistanie odbyły się tylko cztery referenda: dwukrotnie w1991,1995i 2002 r. W konstatacji podkreślono, że referendum ogólnokrajowe w Uzbekistanie spełnia bardzo ważną rolę, stanowiąc w istocie w warunkach państwa o autorytarnym systemie rządów je dyną w pełni demokratyczną formę wyrażenia woli obywateli tego kraju.
