Introduction History of creation and development of criminal pursuit, as of a procedural institute of the cri- minal law, is quite interesting. The mentioned procedural term with its form and meaning established nowadays and reflected in the Georgian science and the legislation, would certainly not exist in the old Georgian law. Establishment of this institute had to pass certain stages and use experience of many countries. At present, criminal pursuit is a complex of activities considered by the criminal legal pro- ceedings, which are implemented by the relevant state institutions to disclose a person who committed the offence.1 Criminal pursuit is directed against the person who committed the crime and it serves for protection of the public interest. From this side, it is very interesting to see if a similar institute of criminal pursuit or a state institution entitled to disclose and punish the criminal existed in the old Georgian law. A lot of interesting information is collected in some of the old Georgian law texts. Some notes about the "pursuit" are also mentioned in historical forms of Georgian legal proceedings. Historically, there were two different forms of pursuit known in the feudal state court procee- dings. The first of them was accusatory process, which existed in the feudal states during the Re- naissance period. The second was the criminal investigation or inquisitive process, which was charac- teristic for the later feudal period.2 In the 19th century, combination of the elements from the mentioned types of the forms of proceedings created the third type, which is called a mixed process.3 Criminal investigation process and civil lawsuits were implemented in the same manner. Each of the cases was a public dispute between a prosecutor and a defendant or a plaintiff and a respondent. Indictment proceedings were started by the initiative of a prosecutor. As for the court, it played a passive role and the scope of its activities was limited to the assessment of the parties’ according to the formal requirements of the law. The cases were conducted verbally. The parties had the equal procedural rights. It was their responsibility to collect and present the evidence. The parties were equally responsible at the court. The prosecution was usually presented by Assistant – Professor, Doctoral Student of the TSU Law Faculty. 1 Strogovich M.S., Criminal Law Process, Tbilisi, 1948, 104; Aabashidze G., Prosecutor as a Body of Criminal Law Pursuit (at the Investigation Stage), Tbilisi, 2011, 9 (in Georgian). 2 Lekveishvili M., Court Proceedings in East Georgia During 17th-18th Centuries, Tbilisi, 1963, 3 (in Georgian). 3 Vacheisjvili Al., Criminal Law Process, Abstracts from History of Criminal Law Proceedings, Part 1, Tbilisi, 1955, 30 (in Georgian). Besik Meurmishvili, Official Pursuit Principle in the Georgian Law the victim or his/her closest kin. Representation was not allowed due to the privacy of the process. The defense, with its modern meaning, did not exist. The prosecutor and the defendant were obliged to prove their truth with their speeches defined by the rule and the factual conditions. The silence of the defendant meant a recognition of the charge.4 When a struggle started for eradication of scattering and for strengthening the king’s gover- nance, the form of the pursuit proceeding was less corresponding to the idea of creation of a central state. For this reason the form of this process gradually changed into so call investigation, inquisitorial process, which soon became the dominant form. So called "official pursuit principle" was developed and "initiation of criminal law pursuit" became the prerogative of the state and not of a private body. With special civil servants, the state started initiation of criminal law proceedings; the investigation process, unlike the accusation process, rejected the competition principle; the legal proceedings became confidential and written. The parties did not have equal rights any more. The process was divided into two stages. The preliminary investigation, when the evidence was collected, got central importance. The judge, who was in charge of investigating the case, had unlimited rights. One more characteristic element of the investigation process was discussion of the case at a closed meeting and rejection of public announcement of the judgment. The first place among the evidence had an acknowledgement of guilt by the accused; it was called "the queen of the evidence". The investigation (inquisitorial) process knew three types of verdicts: "guilty", "not guilty" and "not proven" – leaving the accused suspected. The third type of verdict was taken when the court could not collect enough evidence to consider the defendant guilty or not guilty and the case remained undecided for a definite or indefinite period, until finding some new circumstances.5 As for the mixed type of the process, it was established on two different principles: a preliminary investigation – investigation basis and a hearing of the criminal case at the court – competition principle.6 Thus, the conduction of a legal case knew three forms of the process: accu- satory, investigation (the same as inquisitorial) and mixed processes. At the initial stage of deve- lopment of the law, criminal as well as civil cases were conducted directly by the court. At the later stage of the development, "public basis" was introduced by the criminal investigation (or inquisitorial) proceedings. New institutes - so called "official pursuit principle" and "preliminary investigation", which were necessary elements for strengthening the central government were established. The state bodies, which implement the mentioned functions, were being established. These bodies were considered as parts of the court or as an effective mechanism subordinated to the court control, which served for fighting against narrow feudal interests and strengthening the idea of the united government. From this point of view, the old Georgian law texts are not exception. They contain important information about the principle of "official pursuit". 4 Lekveishvili M., Court Proceedings in East Georgia During 17th-18th Centuries, Tbilisi, 1963, 3-4 (in Georgian). 5 Ibid., 6-8. 6 Vacheisjvili Al., Criminal Law Process, Abstracts from History of Criminal Law Proceedings, Tbilisi, 1955, 126; see more in: Strogovich M.S., Criminal Law Process, Tbilisi, 1948, 47-50 (in Georgian). 6 Journal of Law, #2, 2013 2. "Samparavtmedzeblo" – A Legal Investigation Institution as the Body Implementing the Pursuit The first source of the Georgian law, where the term "pursuit" is mentioned, is "The Deep of Renewal for the Land Possession and Inaccessibility to Giorgi III and Shiomgvimi" dated 1170.7 The mentioned deed mentions "Samparavt-Medzeblo" Court.8 This document states that "Samparavt- Medzeblo justice is implemented wherever it finds something stolen and kept by a peasant in his home. If someone has stolen several times, our Chenils will hang him, or prosecute him; and if he goes far away, our Chenils will chase him. Our thieves pursuers will take away what was stolen and establish the justice".9 This section of the deed clearly shows that in that period, in Georgia,

  • Arab-Israeli Peace Agreements Eli E
    Arab-Israeli Peace Agreements Eli E. Hertz Between 1993 and 2001, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and the Palestinian Authority (PA) signed six agreements with Israel and conducted countless meetings and summits to bring about a lasting peace between them. Each Israeli concession was met with Palestinian non-compliance and escalating violence. Six times, Palestinians failed to honor their commitments and increased their anti-Israeli aggressions. Finally, they broke every promise they made and began an all- out guerrilla war against Israel and its citizens. The failure of the Palestinian leadership to be earnest and trustworthy stands in stark contrast to the statesmanship exhibited by Israel’s peace partners in the region: the late Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and the late Jordanian King Hussein, both of whom honored their agreements. Although Israel succeeded in reaching historic peace agreements with Egypt and Jordan, when the time came to negotiate with the Palestinians in the territories, the Israelis discovered the Palestinian Arabs were unable or unwilling to choose peace or honor their given word. Despite numerous agreements, the pattern has always been the same: The Palestinians violate the conditions and commitments of virtually every agreement they sign. The Camp David Accords The 1979 Camp David Accords brought peace between Israel and Egypt. Because of Egypt’s key leadership role in the Arab world and the clauses in the peace treaty relating to Palestinian autonomy, the Camp David Accords were a breakthrough which offered a framework for a comprehensive settlement. The Palestinians, however, failed to respond positively to this window of opportunity. On March 26, 1979, Israel and Egypt took the first step toward a peace agreement between the Arab world and Israel when they signed the historic Camp David Accords on the White House lawn.

  • A Secure Israel Security: a Condition for Peace
    A Secure Israel Security: A Condition for Peace Eli E. Hertz "If you have a country that's a sliver and you can see three sides of it from a high hotel building, you've got to be careful what you give away and to whom you give it." U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld Town Hall Meeting, Pentagon, August 6, 2002. 1 A strong Israel is a vital asset to the free world and America. To be a strong and dependable friend in a ‘rough neighborhood,’ Israel must have defensible borders and military prowess capable of addressing multiple challenges which can materialize suddenly in this unstable region. The conflict between the Palestinians and Israelis is not the only adversary Israel faces. Historically, anti-Zionism has been the glue behind Arab nationalism. It has provided a convenient scapegoat for deflecting Arab states’ frustration over unsolved domestic problems, but it also stems from a deep innate intolerance that exists throughout the Muslim world to any non-Muslim presence. Israel has no alternative but to remain strong enough to fend off the combined capabilities of all Arab states2 – a reality that leaves little room for risk-taking or margin for error. Scope of the threat: Regional – not local There are observers who point to Israel’s sophisticated armed forces and strong economy and cast Israel in the role of Goliath against a Palestinian David. This portrayal is sometimes motivated by the desire to demonize Israel; at other times it is adopted by well-meaning supporters of Israel who believe Israel can be more generous and can afford to take more risks with its security in hammering out an accord with the Palestinians.

  • Antisemitism
    Poisonous Antisemitism Eli E. Hertz Antisemitism means discrimination and hatred against Jews and Israel. Requiring of Israel a behavior not expected or demanded of any other free and democratic state - is antisemitism. 1 Antisemitism means discrimination and hatred against Jews and Israel. Requiring of Israel a behavior not expected or demanded of any other free and democratic state - is antisemitism. Israel is not immune to scrutiny or criticism, nor should it be. However, disturbing and increasing signs of a new and virulent strain of antisemitism have surfaced which seeks to blame Israel alone for the plight of the Palestinians. In its extreme form, this new antisemitism, also known as “Israel bashing” is a deliberate strategy for policide – the destruction of the Jewish polity and peoplehood via propaganda, the incitement of hate and violence against Jews everywhere. In addition to the resurgence of European antisemitism, the Middle East, the chief consumer of classic “antisemitic texts, demonizes and attacks Jewish peoplehood and Israel. Classic antisemitism assigns Jews, Jewish communities and world Jewry contrived traits and sinister objectives. They range from negative to demonic in character. Since Israel‟s birth, however, and particularly in the past three decades, the focus of antisemitism has shifted from defaming the Jewish faith – its character and social organizations, to attacking Jewish peoplehood itself. This shift reflects the fact that antisemites have always focused on whatever constituted the core of Jewish existence – that is, the content that at any given time is the wellspring of Jewish vitality and unity. Until two generations ago, Jewish life‟s core was Jewish religious beliefs and cohesion as a religious community, and therefore „heretic‟ doctrine and rituals and „clannishness‟ were the prime charges in the antisemite‟s arsenal.

Israel’s dilemmas are particularly acute and often involve many conflicting and contrary considerations. Accordingly, the country’s national leadership must be exposed to ongoing debate of the challenges ahead and the policy options available, in an integrative, interdisciplinary and bipartisan fashion. The Institute for Policy and Strategy (IPS) was founded to serve as a premier convener of Israeli leadership for such debate, focusing on strategic issues that require long-term planning, over- the-horizon thinking and a multi-disciplinary perspective. In pursuit of this end, IPS capitalizes on its smooth, unparalleled access to Israel’s upper echelons to commission task forces, convene conferences, and host executive roundtables involving senior policy makers and seasoned specialists in Israeli and international business, economics and industry, politics and government, academia, military, intelligence, law enforcement, and other vital and relevant sectors.
