The Dynamics of Judicial Independence

More about the book

Examining judicial independence through a comparative lens, this book highlights its varied interpretations and practices across different countries. By analyzing the evolution of judicial independence in Malaysia and Pakistan since their independence, it uncovers how contextual factors influence its development. The author challenges the notion of a universal model of judicial independence, proposing a 'pragmatic and context-sensitive theory' instead. This approach emphasizes the adaptive qualities of judicial independence, asserting its significance and legitimacy within domestic legal frameworks.
