Moral Pressure and Judicial Response Behind Criminal Justice: A Quasinatural Experiment Based on Justifiable Self-Defense Trials in China
Moral judgment is an integral part of judicial adjudication. If courts disregard the moral concerns of the public, their judgments can easily spark moral controversy. This article examines the moral considerations underlying judicial adjudication, analyzing the moral pressures on justice, the ways justice responds, and the boundaries between moral considerations and legal rules. In China, moral disputes are particularly pronounced in cases involv…
Student self-initiated self-assessment in higher education: A cross-disciplinary perspective
Student self-assessment is an important component of self-regulated learning. In higher education, the autonomy of young adults suggests that, without direction by curriculum or instruction, students will engage in self-initiated self-assessment (SISA). A cross-disciplinary semi-structured interview study was conducted at a research-intensive university in New Zealand with 36 students – 12 each from initial teacher education, nursing, and fine ar…

How Courts Act as Institutional Actors in Governance: Strategic Adjudication in Embedded Courts
“Embedded courts” explains how Chinese courts operate within the system of local bureaucratic organisation, raising concerns about how judges balance adjudicative functions with the expectations of local governance. Using 47,641 first-instance trademark judgments (2014–2021), we empirically examine adjudication in embedded courts and observe the following phenomenon: non-local plaintiffs are more likely to win but receive lower compensation; corp…
