Judging and Emotion investigates how judicial officers understand,
experience, display, manage and deploy emotions in their everyday
work, in light of their fundamental commitment to impartiality.
Judging and Emotion challenges the conventional assumption that
emotion is inherently unpredictable, stressful or a personal
quality inconsistent with impartiality. Extensive empirical
research with Australian judicial officers demonstrates the ways
emotion, emotional capacities and emotion work are integral to
judicial practice. Judging and Emotion articulates a broader
conception of emotion, as a social practice emerging from
interaction, and demonstrates how judicial officers undertake
emotion work and use emotion as a resource to achieve impartiality.
A key insight is that institutional requirements, including
conceptions of impartiality as dispassion, do not completely
determine the emotion dimensions of judicial work. Through their
everyday work, judicial officers construct and maintain the
boundaries of an impartial judicial role which necessarily
incorporates emotion and emotion work. Building on a growing
interest in emotion in law and social sciences, this book will be
of considerable importance to socio-legal scholars, sociologists,
the judiciary, legal practitioners and all users of the courts.
