In his Judicial Deliberations: A Comparative Analysis of Judicial
Transparency and Legitimacy (Oxford 2004), the American-French
scholar Mitchel Lasser has, among other things, tried to
re-establish the strengths of the French cassation system. Using
Lasser's approach and ideas as a starting point, in this book
judges from the French, Belgian and Dutch Cassation Courts reflect
on the challenges that their Courts are facing. The book also
contains a series of contributions from scholars analyzing the wide
range of factors that determine the legitimacy of these courts'
decisions. Specific attention is given to the Strasbourg Court of
Human Rights that has been so important for the moral legitimacy of
the European legal order, and to courts in post-communist systems,
which face many similar challenges and are even under greater
pressure to modernize. The book is a multidisciplinary contribution
to the international debate about the legitimacy of the highest
courts' rulings as well as the concept of judicial leadership and
offers a new perspective in the USA versus Europe debate. It is
recommended reading for academics, judges, policymakers, political
scientists and students. Nick Huls is a Professor of socio-legal
studies at the Faculty of Law of the Erasmus University Rotterdam
and Leiden University's Faculty of Law, The Netherlands. Maurice
Adams is a Professor of law at Tilburg University, The Netherlands,
and part-time Professor of comparative law at Antwerp University in
Belgium. JaccoBomhoff is a Lecturer in law at the Law Department of
the London School of Economics in the UK.
