Annotation This paper deals with the constitutional process in the independent Ukraine. Expressed are some views on methodological grounds for reform of existing Constitution at the present stage. It is indicated that the new Constitution should be based on the experience of the world and European constitutionalism; making systematic and comprehensive changes does not essentially involves passing new Fundamental Law. The system of social values should be built in such a way that there is a man on its top, not the state; a parliamentary-presidential model of governance is the priority for Ukraine at the present stage, as well as the improved system of the judiciary, in particular regarding its accountability to the people, and simplification and accessibility of justice, strengthening the guarantees of legality.
Keywords Constitution of Ukraine, constitutional law, constitutional process, values, fundamental principles.
