What kind of judiciary does Serbia need?

Bearing in mind the burden of the past and the inherited mentality, building a better judiciary according to the measure of liberal democracy will be a huge road. On the way to more credible institutions, the bravest should be precisely those who plead for the citizens to trust them, with the fact that we should never lose sight of the fact that the process of building respectable institutions is a two-way street in which Serbian society must equally participate by changing its idea of the judiciary.
