With the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Central Asian republics enacted numerous reforms to bolster the market economy, to establish constitutional structures, and to support and protect democracy. Lay participation in criminal law decisions considered a key attribute of democracy and the adversarial criminal procedure system was also revised. In this regard, the central question concerned how the Soviet criminal justice system could be transformed through lay participation to imply judicial independence. This article provides an overview of these reforms and introduces the various models of lay participation that have evolved in the states of Central Asia.
