This comprehensive Research Handbook offers a multi-faceted
analysis of the politics of law and courts and their role in
governing. The authors develop new theoretical, empirical and
methodological approaches to the study of law and courts as
institutions, while accounting for the increasing diversity and
complexity of the jurisdictions they oversee. The Research Handbook
on Law and Courts features contributions from leading scholars in
the United States, New Zealand, South Africa, Latin America and a
number of European countries, enriching the scope of theoretical
development in the field and identifying areas for future research.
Chapters address courts' centrality to governance by explaining how
they participate in holding democratic administrations politically
accountable, as well as by highlighting the political significance
of court decisions concerning citizenship and inclusion. Chapters
include studies of interactions between legal arguments, courts and
other institutions that rely on law, as well as reflections on the
physical and digital spaces of law. This volume also examines
demographic diversity in judging before concluding with discussions
of increasing digitization and computing power, and the
significance of both for legal processes and sociolegal
scholarship. Scholars concerned with courts and political
accountability in complex, multi-layered governance will find this
Research Handbook an invaluable resource. Since courts and legal
structures are increasingly significant around the world, the
Research Handbook will also be useful to other social scientists
concerned with inclusion, representation, and accountability
through law.
