During the last thirty years, the judiciary has undergone an
unprecedented expansion in its size and power. Judges now have more
influence over our private and public lives than ever before. The
effect of this change has been to transform the judiciary from an
inward-looking elite into an increasingly heterogeneous
professional body. 'The New Judiciary' examines the developments
which have taken place in the appointment, training and scrutiny of
judges as a result of the expanding judicial role. It highlights
the increasing tension between the requirements of judicial
independence and accountability which these changes are producing.
The traditional insulation of the judiciary from all external
influences is being challenged by the need for greater openness and
public scrutiny of the judicial process. The passing of the Human
Rights Act 1998, incorporating the European Convention on Human
Rights into domestic law represents another stage in this process
by expanding the policy-making role of the senior judiciary still
further. As a result, the continuing modernisation of the
judiciary, which is the subject of this book, will be a
increasingly important feature of the legal and political process
in the years ahead.
