Abstract
<jats:p>The purpose of the study is to reveal, present, and substantiate the possibility of modeling-classification, based on clearly formulated criteria in the context of distinguishing between Security Councils and National Security Councils. It is noteworthy that in constitutional law theory, for example, we distinguish between Anglo-Saxon, continental, and mixed models of constitutional justice, based on the existence or absence of a specialized body administering constitutional review, its constitutional-legal status, peculiarities of competence, and so on. However, in this context, no objective criteria exist by which Security Councils or National Security Councils may also be classified. For instance, Security Councils or National Security Councils may be classified according to their nature, the authority presiding over them, their composition, the procedure for their formation, and other criteria. Considering the fact that neither theory nor practice provides clear approaches regarding what criteria are necessary to classify Security Councils, it became necessary to conduct the research primarily through the comparative legal method, since it is essential to identify how Security Councils are formed, and what status and composition they have.</jats:p>
