The role of the prosecutor in the legal system is traditionally perceived in the context of performing tasks relating to the prosecution of offences and upholding the rule of law. It is worth mentioning, however, that pursuant to Article 7 sentence 1 of the Code of Civil Procedure the prosecutor may petition to institute proceedings in any civil matter as well as participate in any pending proceedings if he considers his presence necessary to protect the rule of law, citizens’ rights or social interest. While the broad competence range of the prosecutor in civil proceedings has been assessed with high criticism in the literature on numerous occasions, it is with great caution that one should view possible tendencies towards exclusion of the prosecutor as an attendant of proceedings, without affiliation to either party, when the public interest calls for their participation. Especially in the cases where the court notifies the prosecutor of the need to participate in proceedings, one ought to conclude that it is the moment when the principle of effective legal protection becomes most fully realized through equalizing the litigious position of the parties and prevention of the occurrence of a defect which might invalidate the proceedings. The author postulates transforming notification of the need to participate in proceedings served on the prosecutor into summons for attending it.

The focus of this article will be to ascertain what role, if any, the Public Protector plays in achieving and upholding the rule of law as envisaged in section 1(c) of the Constitution. In doing so, I will assess the powers of the Public Protector as envisaged by the Constitution and supporting legislation and analyse the effect of recommendations made by the Public Protector. I will then offer a discussion on certain shortfalls within the legislation that have become a hindrance to the Public Protector achieving her mandate in practice. I will, further, highlight the importance of the powers of the Public Protector as an avenue to achieving the rule of law, and, offer an analysis of the judgments in South African Broadcasting Commission v Democratic Alliance and Economic Freedom Fighters v Speaker of the National Assembly.

The separation and balance of State powers constitute the basis of the rule of law. Observance of this principle requires framing of public authorities within the limits of competence established by the Constitution and the law, as well as loyal cooperation between them. From this perspective, the attribution of the constitutional courts for settling legal disputes of a constitutional nature is an important tool for correcting the tendencies of violation of these limits, as well as for identifying solutions for situations that do not find an explicit regulation in the constitutional texts. The present study analyses the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court of Romania in the field of legal disputes of a constitutional nature, revealing, together with the presentation of dispute situations, the vulnerabilities of the constitutional reference texts. It is also highlighted the role of the constitutional courts in the evolution of constitutional law institutions. The conclusion of the study, beyond the subject of legal disputes of a constitutional nature, bears on the necessity, even more so in this matter, of the certainty of jurisdictional interpretation. This certainty cannot be achieved as long as the interpretation is not authoritative; consequently, the assurance of the effectiveness of constitutional justice constitute a key issue of the rule of law.

Los procesos de transformación en la Gestión Pública han actuado en las funciones y organización de la Administración, produciendo cambios que han afectado tanto a las relaciones entre el ámbito público y privado, en el seno de los poderes públicos y sus órganos administrativos, como entre los procedimientos técnicos y jurídicos que los conforman. Una revisión de estos fenómenos lleva a la necesidad de realizar un estudio más profundo y objetivo acerca del papel del marco jurídico público y, especialmente, el régimen jurídico administrativo, ante la necesidad de abrir nuevos enfoques y perspectivas sobre la situación del Estado de Derecho.The transformation processes in public management have acted on the functions and organization of the administration, producing changes that have affected both the relationships between the public and private, within public authorities and administrative bodies, and between technical and legal procedures that conform. A review of these phenomena leads to the need for a more thorough and objective study on the role of public legal framework, especially the administrative legal system, given the need to open up new approaches and perspectives on the status of the rule of law.

This article examines the relation between the rule of law and constitutionalism. It attempts to provide a better understanding of the ambiguous construct of the rule of law which still remains in the public imagination as a formative part of political discourse. It analyses the role of the rule of law within the constitutional structure of a progressively more formalized European Union or within the more recently constituted post-communist states of Eastern Europe and considers the manner in which some contemporary jurisprudential and political thinkers have considered the rule of law.

Concerned with the role of the judiciary as a constraining agent of fuzzy law, the chapter is laid out in two layers. First, in light of the special problems attached to reliance on fuzzy law, it advances arguments that call for enhanced review in this context. Secondly, the chapter joins the ongoing general debate over the role of the judiciary in the shaping of the public sphere. The argument for active review is based both on the principles reflected in the rule of law ideal, and on an argument from governance. Setting judicial review in a framework that seeks to enhance participation, the judiciary, stripped of accusations of supremacy over all other forms of decision-making, operates as an intermediator by offering members of society, especially those who do not have direct access to government corridors, an additional forum for voicing their concerns and thereby contributing to public deliberation over all contested aspects of social and political life.

This chapter examines the role of the public prosecutor in Anglophone Africa, in the light of two constitutional principles: the separation of powers and the rule of law. It considers the extent to which the prosecutor’s role, and his individual decisions, ought to be separated from ‘policy’ or ‘party-political’, or otherwise ‘partisan’ considerations. How ‘objective’ should (or can) he be? The chapter also considers to what extent the prosecutor’s constitutional role and institutional functions require him to be insulated from judicial review. In the context of government lawyers acting as guardians of the rule of law, the chapter looks at the extent of the prosecutor’s discretion to enforce and not to enforce the law. Finally, it asks whether there may be ways to structure his discretion in the interest of the rule of law.

Alan Brudner’s closely-argued, richly-textured and wide-ranging work, Constitutional Goods, provides a striking and original account of the rule of law and its implications for legitimate government. Since the rule of law includes the enforcement of substantive principles ofjustice, it requires a clear separation of powers between court and legislature. The role of the court is chiefly confined to pure practical reason, determining what the public reason of the liberal consti-tution requires. It is the role of the legislative assembly to give its assent to governmental measures that apply the principles ofjustice to empirical circumstances, where the scope for reasonable disagreement provokes a transition from natural law to political judgment. Judicial review carries no anti-democratic implications because it defends the conceptual boundaries of popular decision-making: ‘Democracy is not defeated but protected if the court invalidates a law no free person could impose on himself, for the majority has no more authority to pass such a law than an autocrat nor any jurisdiction to decide by fiat a question to which there is a correct legal answer.’
