Since then, widespread judicialization of politics around the world has animated political reform and scholarly debate (Michel and Sikkink, 2013). The debate over when and whether courts hold central and local governments accountable keeps alive the idea that courts hold the powerful to account, serving the rule of law. Many studies of variation in courts and law take this idea as a background theoretical framework.2 That purpose of courts then sets two problems as central. First, if courts hold other powerful institutions to account, it is unclear why these institutions would allow lawsuits. The question is particularly puzzling in authoritarian regimes (Ginsburg and Moustafa, 2008; Moustafa, 2004). Attacks on courts mark authoritarianism even outside authoritarian states. The mirror problem in liberal democracies is that of understanding when and where courts hold actors to account in a way that counters what majorities seem to want. Studies of what high courts do often demonstrate how they thread this needle. Courts often rule in favor of central governments on key political issues, and in favor of more advantaged people in many others. In cases where courts would seem especially valuable for holding governments accountable—when executives claim sole authority to fight terror, conduct war, exclude asylum seekers, or manage need in emergencies—courts are often very likely to defer, or lose jurisdiction or budget or operating expenses. Alternatively, they may craft decisions that hold powerful institutions to account while allowing officials considerable discretion. If they do not hold powerful institutions to account, the fear in a liberal democracy is that courts might primarily serve the powerful’s purposes of","PeriodicalId":411025,"journal":{"name":"Research Handbook on Law and Courts","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131709467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
