Judicial conflicts on international law
How do supreme court judges’ disagreements about international law (IL) align with broader judicial conflicts? Existing research tends to frame domestic judicial conflicts on international law as a tension between sovereigntism and supranationalism. However, given that judiciaries are often characterised by internal disagreement, this paper investigates how international law aligns with broader judicial conflicts. We expect that IL interacts with…
People as Climate Action Motivators. A Survey‐Based Study of Wording and Arguments Suggested as Motivating for Individual Climate Action
Many studies emphasize the importance of interpersonal communication in shaping individuals' climate beliefs and actions, but none seem to focus on individuals in the general public as “climate action motivators,” i.e., persons providing reasons to engage in climate action. Our goal is to move linguistic research on climate communication forward through an innovative study focusing on identifying words and arguments that people assume will motiva…
Public Perceptions of What Qualifies as Terrorism Across Similar Countries with Diverse Terrorism Experiences
Norway, Sweden and Iceland are neighboring countries that have diverse experiences with terrorism. A right-wing extremist used explosives and guns to kill scores of Norwegians and an Islamic fundamentalist used a truck as a weapon to kill Swedes. Meanwhile, Icelanders have not experienced terrorism at all. What role, if any, do these experiences have in what the public defines as terrorism? Drawing on theories that emphasize similarities in media…
In the green? Perceptions of hydrogen production methods among the Norwegian public
This article presents findings from a representative survey, fielded through the Norwegian Citizen Panel, examining public perceptions of hydrogen fuel and its different production methods. Although several countries, including Norway, have strategies to increase the production of hydrogen fuel, our results indicate that hydrogen as an energy carrier, and its different production methods, are still unknown to a large part of the public. A common …
Beyond the Myth of Legality? Framing Effects and Public Reactions to High Court Decisions in Europe
How do people respond to different decision-making processes in high courts? One long-standing view suggests that citizens expect courts to be neutral arbiters of legal controversies. Although the relevance of such “myth of legality” has been challenged, we know very little about the relationship between the portrayals of the motives of courts and justices and public attitudes in civil law countries. We explore this question in a pair of experime…
How Docket Control Shapes Judicial Behavior
European courts have responded to increasing caseloads by providing justices or other actors with a higher degree of discretionary docket control. Does docket type—mandatory or discretionary—shape judicial behavior? Using a most similar systems research design regarding tax decisions in the Norwegian and Danish supreme courts, we show that discretionary dockets are associated with higher dissent and reversal rates than mandatory dockets, that low…
The Government Deference Dimension of Judicial Decision Making
Past research has revealed conflicting findings regarding the degree to which judges on European apex courts enact their policy preferences or instead disagree on the basis of divergent legal views. We investigate disagreement between judges on the Norwegian Supreme Court between 1996 and 2016. During this period, the court dealt with a greater volume of policy‐relevant cases than previously. The method of appointment to the court was also change…
Supreme Court Justices’ Economic Behaviour
Supreme Court justices are overlooked, but important, national policy‐making players who render final and consequential decisions in cases on economic conflicts. The research question asks what forces explain the decisional behaviour of Supreme Court justices in economic rights cases between a private and a public party. Theoretically, the decisional behaviour of an individual justice is a function of his or her notion as to what makes ‘good’ law…
