Public Reason and Courts is an interdisciplinary study of public
reason and courts with contributions from leading scholars in legal
theory, political philosophy and political science. The book's
chapters demonstrate the breadth of ways in which public reason and
public justification is currently seen as relevant for adjudicative
reasoning and review practices, and includes critical assessments
of different ways that the idea of public reason has been applied
to courts. It shows that public reason is not just an abstract
theoretical concept used by political philosophers, but an idea
that spurs new perspectives and normative frameworks also for legal
scholars and judges. In particular, the book demonstrates the
potential, and the limitations, of the idea of public reason as a
source of legitimacy for courts, in a context where many courts
face political backlashes and crisis of trust.
