Abstract

Language is the weapon of choice in courtrooms. This Panel invites Papers that leverage a diverse set of methods – from machine learning applications to qualitative text analysis – to study a broad variety of sources of legal texts. The Panel welcomes studies of court judgments, lawyers’ pleas and third-party submissions that allow us to learn more about the motivations of relevant actors in judicial proceedings at both domestic and international courts.
