Nature of the Judicial Process
'Nature of the Judicial Process' Summary
Cardozo, a respected figure in American jurisprudence, provides a deep dive into the intricate workings of the judicial process. He dissects the methods judges use to arrive at their decisions, demonstrating how those decisions, in turn, shape the evolution of law. Cardozo breaks down the process into distinct approaches: the method of philosophy, relying on logical progression and analogy; the method of evolution, tracing the historical development of legal principles; the method of tradition, drawing upon the customs of a community; and the method of sociology, considering the broader social context and the impact of the law on society. Through these lenses, Cardozo examines the role of precedent, the power of analogy, and the ever-changing social landscape in influencing legal reasoning. He contrasts the common law tradition with legal systems found in continental Europe, offering a comprehensive view of the judicial process across different legal cultures. *The Nature of the Judicial Process* remains a seminal work, offering a profound and insightful analysis of the judicial system and its role in shaping society.Book Details
