The Constitutional Revolution
Question
Hello. What is your opinion of Aharon Barak's constitutional revolution? Yes, I know the topic is too broad and too long. But maybe still a few words, if possible.
Answer
It's hard for me to go into detail, and I also don't know the subject well enough. In general, in my assessment both sides exaggerate. It is impossible to do without interpretive involvement by the court, but it's also forbidden to overdo it. Exactly where the line is drawn is hard to say. In many cases, the court acts within the gaps that the Knesset left when it did not do what was incumbent upon it. a0
