Primakov, D.Ya. The Israeli model of judicial activism

Abstract: The active part of the Supreme Court and a special position of the judiciary system in the structure of the distribution of powers played a special role in the formation of the Israeli right. Historically, a special place of the court in Jewish law and culture is due to the fact that in a certain sense, the judge in the community level was the only law enforcement official; moreover, he often performed functions in the role of a legislator. The article examines the formation stages of the Supreme Court of Israel and the acquisition of its independence. Also, we can see here the concerns that declare that with the new President of the Supreme Court, this body will become less independent.
