Analyzing judicial decisions | SOC 205 – Society, Law and Government | Strayer University

Overview

One would expect public opinion to have less effect on federal judges, who are appointed for life than it has on those state judges who must regularly stand for reelection. For this assignment, you’ll focus on the basis of judicial decisions, approaches for analyzing those decisions, as well as the impact they have on society, precedent, and the law. 

Instructions

Complete the following sections of the Week 8 Assignment Template to address the following:

  1. Discuss whether judicial decisions are based on a) facts, laws, and precedent (the legal subculture); b) public opinion, politics, localism (democratic subculture); or c) both. Provide specific examples and cite any sources used.
  2. Discuss whether the four theories or approaches (cue, small-group analysis, attitude, and rational choice)  for analyzing judicial decisions are equally useful. Provide specific examples and cite any sources used.
  3. Explain whether judicial decisions should reflect public opinion, using a specific example, and cite any sources used.
  4. Describe the impact of judicial decisions on law, precedent, and social policy. Provide specific examples and cite any sources used.
