Abstract
One of the biggest challenges for countries in transition in the process of setting up an independent judiciary is to establish an appropriate system of judicial administration. Particularly challenging in this regard is balancing judicial independence on the one hand with judicial accountability on the other, as well as establishing mechanisms for ensuring transparency. As evidenced in this contribution, these two major challenges are particularly noticeable with regard to the two key organs of judicial administration in Eastern Europe, the South Caucasus and Central Asia – judicial councils and court presidents.
