User perspectives on the role of local services in promoting labor market participation of people with chronic illnesses
How do local Norwegian work, welfare, and health services (WWH services) support the labor market integration of chronically ill people? We discuss how user organization representatives evaluate the role of municipal-level service support in facilitating labor market participation of people with chronic illnesses and disabilities, and to what extent the views of user organizations are requested and included in local service development. We thus c…
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…
Dissent, Legitimacy, and Public Support for Court Decisions
Scholars often argue that whereas unanimous rulings should boost public support for court decisions, dissents should fuel public opposition. Previous studies on public responses to U.S. Supreme Court decisions suggest that unanimity does in fact bolster support. However, a recent study has also found that dissents may increase support among opponents of a court decision by suggesting evidence of procedural justice. By examining how individuals re…
Court Leadership, Agenda Transformation, and Judicial Dissent
The previous literature debates whether rising rates of dissent are best explained by changes in court leadership and the composition of justices or by greater judicial discretion and changes in agenda. This article examines the influential hypotheses derived from the literature in the relevant and testable European case of the Supreme Court of Norway. It shows that the rising rate of dissent in the Court in the 1990s was mainly catalyzed by fund…
Dissenser i Norges Høyesterett
Denne artikkelen søker å forklare hva som påvirker dommere i Norges Høyesterett til å dissentere. Høyesterett behandler saker hvor den juridiske metoden er såpass fleksibel at den kan føre til ulike utfall. Bruken av ulike rettskildefaktorer åpner for et betydelig rom for skjønn, og i flere tilfeller må dommere se til andre rettskildefaktorer enn de rent juridiske for å komme frem til en løsning i saken. Inspirert av amerikansk forskning på domme…
