Reflections on the Identity Crisis of the Judicial System

Abstract

Identity is the concept by which a system defines itself. A system outlines identity when it is able to identify values as jus cogens, perpetually strictly respected, able to remain determined, vertical and independent in the context of social antagonisms, able to form authentic and indisputable leaders, able to generate and promote collective will. Identity, as a subjective and tonic conviction of the unity and continuity of the system, gives it strength and stability. Opposite, the identity crisis, generating a state of conflicting tension within the system, but also in relation to other systems, leads to vulnerability and obstructs rationality. This article will address the identity crisis faced by the judicial system of the Republic of Moldova today. DOI: https://doi.org/10.53486/cike2023.65; UDC: 342.56(478); JEL: K10, K40
