Title: Constitutional Judicial Review, Chief Justices, and Judges' Preferences: Institutional Lessons and Israel's High Court of Justice
Abstract: Theoretical literature on courts, society and politics is usually divided between the attitudinal and the strategic institutional models in efforts to explicate courts' rulings and their judicial behavior. In this context of empirical analysis of judicial behavior, using insights from both models, we focus on judicial preferences of individual judges as a key for theoretical and empirical analysis of courts as institutional player. Accordingly, we offer to explicate Supreme Courts through an original examination of Israel's Supreme Court, sitting as High Court of Justice (HCJ) looking into it as a dominant veto point.
