The rationale that the prosecutor joining as a party to legal proceedings in criminal justice and beyond is in the public interest, could be considered a generally accepted position. However, the question is whether the concept of the public interest, apparently self-explanatory, is, in fact, so explicit and clear. Clarification of this question requires an examination of the concept public from various angles. An overview of the legislative provisions regulating the prosecutor's participation in different proceedings may facilitate this clarification. The effectiveness of prosecutorial participation in advancing the public interest in matters of societal concern needs careful consideration. It may be assisted by comparison with foreign and international experience, which will be reflected to a certain extent in this paper.
