Více o knize

Focusing on the judicial decision-making process, Austin Lovegrove explores how judges approach sentencing for multiple offenders. By analyzing judges' "think aloud" responses during sentencing scenarios, he reveals the strategies they use to navigate sentencing law. This study enhances the understanding of the sentencing process, allowing for a critical evaluation of judicial practices. Lovegrove advocates for more structured and deliberative approaches, proposing rule-based and numerical guidelines to transform an intuitive process into a more systematic one.
