Relying on an expansive database of Canadian Supreme Court rulings between 1984 and 2003, the authors present the most systematic discussion of the attitudinal model of decision making ever conducted outside the setting of the US Supreme Court. The groundbreaking discussion of the viability of this model as a unifying theory of judicial behaviour in high courts around the world will be essential reading for a wide range of legal scholars and court watchers. 410 0$aLaw and society series (Vancouver, B.C.) 606 $aJudicial process$zCanada 606 $aCourts of last resort$zCanada 606 $aJudges$zCanada$xAttitudes 606 $aPolitical questions and judicial power$zCanada 615 0$aJudicial process 615 0$aCourts of last resort 615 0$aJudges$xAttitudes. 615 0$aPolitical questions and judicial power 676 $a347.71/035 700 $aOstberg$b C.
