the article deals with certain quantitative analysis of legislation, the backbone of any legal order, using methodological and theoretical approach, as well as investigative and analytical approach applied, in this case, on legislation, i.e. the legal order of the Czech Republic. The introduction is therefore necessarily focusing on the question whether such legal phenomenon as legislation can be described quantitatively. The next part is dedicated to the methodology and clarification of author’s approach, i.e. mainly definitions and interpretations of the introduced and monitored variables and their operationalization. The third part of the study is an application of the introduced methodology on concrete research: quantitative description of Czech legislation over the last 12-month period, for which full data set has been collected.
