| Synopsis: |
This book provides a comprehensive exploration of ideological patternsof judicial behaviour in the Supreme Court of Canada. Relying on anexpansive database of Canadian Supreme Court rulings between 1984 and2003, the authors present the most systematic discussion of theattitudinal model of decision making ever conducted outside the settingof the US Supreme Court. They test the assumption, accepted by manypolitical scientists, that conflict in the courts is due in large partto ideological divisions among the members. The groundbreakingdiscussion of the viability of the attitudinal model as a unifyingtheory of judicial behaviour in high courts around the world will beessential reading for a wide range of legal scholars and courtwatchers. |
