Abstract
This article argues that parliamentarization in contemporary Ukraine is barely more than an elite
strategy, lacking essential mechanisms and preconditions on the institutional level and habitual
capabilities on the individual one. This contribution scrutinizes origins and consequences of this
incongruity by analyzing parliamentarians' social background, patterns of political career and the
structure of 'personal integrity'. Currently, these factors do not 'add up' with the internal logic of a
parliamentary-presidential Republic.
