A Court Quietly Rewrote the Federal Pesticide Statute: How Prevalent is Judicial Statutory Revision?
ANGUS MACINTYRE 《Law & policy》1985,7(2):249-279

The resurgence in policymaking by American courts has revitalized the longstanding debate over judicial activism. Yet much of that debate addresses judicial interpretations of the Constitution, as distinct from statutory law. When interpreting vague statutes, judges can make inconspicuous but fundamental policy reforms. This paper discusses the political circumstances encouraging this form of judicial intervention. The enormous subtlety in judicial capabilities is illustrated. The paper concludes that by focusing primarily on obvious features of court activism, the contemporary debate may be seriously under representing the extent of judicial contributions to our fragmented form of governance. 相似文献

Qualitative methods were used with the aim of identifying any persistent patterns in the written judgments of British employment tribunal cases involving claims of race discrimination that might explain why these claims are relatively unlikely to succeed. The main factors at work appeared to be credibility of the parties and whether the claimant had enough evidence to pass the burden of proof to the respondent. A relatively recent legislative amendment relating to burden of proof appears to be very significant, while other factors highlighted in the literature appear to be less so. 相似文献
