Judicial Independence
This study discusses the many different aspects of judicial independence in Israel. It begins with an historical analysis of the concept of judicial independence in a comparative perspective, emphasizing the conceptual roots of the judiciary in Jewish law. Recent decades have witnessed a marked increase in the role played by the judiciary in society. This general trend is apparent in Israel, where the highly significant social role played by the judiciary has been on the increase for some years. The constitutional role of the judiciary in society is more pronounced in countries where the courts are empowered to review the constitutionality of legislative acts. In Israel the power of judicial review, in decisions of the Supreme Court, has been applied in a number of cases in which legislation of the Israeli Parliament, the Knesset, has been set aside. The increasingly prominent role of the judiciary in Israel is further manifested by the frequent recourse to judicial commissions of inquiry, chaired by judges who are often called upon to examine some of the major public controversies.

Introduction to the Law of Argentina
Argentina’s new Civil and Commercial Code Código Civil y Comercial de la Nación has led to the adoption of a number of modern institutions in several branches of law.

The Judicial Response to Police Killings in Latin America
This book documents the corrosive effect of social exclusion on democracy and the rule of law. It shows how marginalization prevents citizens from effectively engaging even the best legal systems, how politics creeps into prosecutorial and judicial decision making, and how institutional change is often nullified by enduring contextual factors. It also shows how some institutional arrangements can overcome these impediments. The argument is based on extensive field work and original data on the investigation and prosecution of more than 500 police homicides in five legal systems in Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay. It includes both qualitative analyses of individual violations and prosecutions and quantitative analyses of broad patterns within and across jurisdictions. The book offers a structured comparison of police, prosecutorial, and judicial institutions in each location, and shows that analyses of any one of these organizations in isolation misses many of the essential dynamics that underlie an effective system of justice.

A Estabilidade das Decisões no Controle de Constitucionalidade Abstrato
"O seu mérito afigura-se indiscutível, pelo interesse do tema, pelo rigor da análise, pela clareza da escrita, pela ousadia de algumas das posições, pelo diálogo que, por certo, vai suscitar. E sinto-me grato e honrado por poder escrever estas breves palavras." In prefácio de Jorge Miranda. "A atualidade do tema, da estabilidade das decisões no controle abstrato de constitucionalidade, e a profundidade com que é estudado, desperta interesse já na primeira oportunidade de contato com o trabalho. Incansáveis pesquisas doutrinárias foram feitas. Por outro lado, não foram relegadas para o segundo plano as posições jurisprudenciais e a verificação das soluções, que adviriam de diferentes tomadas de posição." In Apresentação de Thereza Alvim.
