from Part III - Legal Metamorphosis?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 March 2025
This chapter outlines the new landscape of judicial discretion in the settlement era, referring to both critical claims of law and advanced perspectives on conflict resolution. It integrates theoretical claims as to the notion of law and legal formalism together with advanced approaches to conflict resolution. It suggests a new model for judicial discretion and provides a theoretical framework to combine the principles of conflict resolution and law as they pertain to the judicial role. In addition, it shows how judges may exercise their discretion in the courtroom (rather than through a judicial verdict). We then entwine our theories and findings, constructing a training scheme suggested for judges, which integrates conflict resolution perspectives as well as normative and ethical considerations.
