Abstract

This paper is dedicated to the functioning and importance of independent agencies versus balance in the proper functioning of the legal system of the state. Independent institutions are the key element of a functioning democracy. Together with the legislature, the executive and the judiciary they enable a developed system of maintaining balance, increasing accountability and mitigating undue political influence. The challenges that accompany Kosovo's transitional democracy continue to hamper the development of institutions ranging from persistent resource shortages to political interference. The Government and Assembly of Kosovo should lead by example and publicly demonstrate their unwavering support for independent institutions. They must respect their full independence guaranteed by the Constitution and the law. The reasonable legal basis provides reasons for encouragement along with the strong institutional structure that most of the institutions analyzed possess. Otherwise, if current practices continue, then security institutions will have no motive to cooperate with independent institutions.
