Abstract

How do frontline judges perceive managerial reforms, and how do they cope with them? We relied on concepts from street-level bureaucracy to systematically review the effects of managerial techniques on frontline judges in 35 studies. We find that judges’ attitudes toward managerialization are more heterogeneous than might be anticipated. Beyond facing an increasing caseload, judges are pressed to reduce treatment times and costs as well as to play managerial roles. Judges’ mechanisms to cope with pressures include rationing, prioritizing, and routinizing. While managerialization is a solution to the increasing caseload, it might well affect the quality of justice.

既不是灵丹妙药也不是大灰狼——对一线法官管理化态度与应对的系统考察

一线法官如何看待管理改革，他们如何应对？我们依靠街头官僚机构的概念，在35项研究中系统地审查了管理技术对一线法官的影响。我们发现，法官对管理化的态度比预期的更具异质性。除了面临越来越多的案件外，法官还面临着减少治疗时间和费用以及发挥管理作用的压力。法官应对压力的机制包括定量配给、优先排序和程序化。虽然管理化是解决不断增加的案件数量的一种方法，但它很可能会影响司法质量。
