Routledge Judicial Ethics - Library of Essays on Legal Ethics

Judicial ethics represents a growing field of study that remains relatively underexplored in legal literature. This volume from the Library of Essays on Legal Ethics and the Enforcement of Law provides a comprehensive look at this essential subject. It marks a significant milestone for scholars and legal professionals by bringing together the most important canons of modern judicial ethics scholarship into one collection. This book explores a wide range of topics, starting with the metaethics of decision-making and its direct impact on the judiciary. Readers can examine the ethical evaluation of both the substance and the procedure of judicial decisions, alongside a study of codes of judicial conduct. By collecting previously published articles, this work serves as a foundational resource for anyone studying the enforcement of law and the ethical standards required of the bench. It is an essential addition to any legal library focused on the evolution of judicial standards and professional responsibility.
