Beskrivning
Foreign judges sit on domestic courts in over fifty jurisdictions worldwide. They serve on ordinary courts, including apex and constitutional courts, as well as specialist courts, such as international commercial courts and hybrid criminal tribunals. This Handbook presents the first global comparative study of this long-standing, diverse and evolving practice, from colonial precedents to new forms of foreign judging in contemporary conditions of globalisation. Chapters by scholars of law, politics and history, and reflections by judges themselves, provide detailed information and critical analysis of foreign judging across Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Europe, the Middle East and the Pacific. The chapters examine the notion and relevance of foreignness, rationales for foreign judges, and the implications for judicial identity, adjudication, independence and accountability. Focusing on an underexplored issue that features mainly in small states and jurisdictions of the Global South, this Handbook challenges assumptions and expands knowledge about courts and judges.

Recensioner i media

'The Handbook is a defining work in a nascent field of literature on foreign judges in domestic courts. The sheer volume, breadth and scope of the Handbook is to be commended. The Handbook will be highly informative for academics and practitioners engaged in the question of who judges are and how judges judge. It will also be helpful for those who, like me, seek to locate and understand their encounters with foreign judges across a range of jurisdictions and subject-matters.' Natasha Naidu, VRÜ Verfassung und Recht in Übersee
