Summary/Abstract: The rule of law is the central theme of several cycles of judicial reforms in Serbia, a process that has been running almost continuously for the past two decades, with several stages marked by significant legislative, personal and institutional changes. In recent times, the issue of the rule of law has become particularly relevant as one of the basic political criteria in the process of accession to the European Union. Achieving this principle, among other things, implies an independent judiciary, non-selective application of law, exclusion of illegal influences on the work of judicial bodies, as well as a number of elements that are constitutive and necessary for the functioning of an independent judiciary in practice.
