Abstract

Making public officials accountable in terms of their powers and jurisdiction is an obvious necessity, which is done in different ways by various institutions. Political adjudication is considered as an effective mechanism to hold public authorities accountable and is used along with other mechanisms such as questioning, impeachment, censuring of the government, and judicial and administrative oversight. In this paper, using a descriptive-analytical approach, the nature, history and function of political adjudication as a monitoring mechanism against high officials in presidential as well as parliamentary systems will be examined. Political adjudication is a process of investigation and prosecution of crimes and infractions committed by a high-ranking official done by a political body which results in a political verdict.
