Combining in-depth conceptual analysis with practice in a broad range of jurisdictions\, this book answers two important questions: what devices courts should use to exercise deference\, and how deference can be made more workable for judges and predictable for litigants. It introduces six devices for deference (namely\, the burden of proof\, standard of proof\, standard of review\, giving of weight\, choice of interpretation\, and choice of remedy)\, analyzes how courts should choose amongst them\, and proposes techniques for rendering deference practicable.
Cora Chan\, Professor of Law at the University of Hong Kong\, will provide an overview of her new book Deference in Human Rights Adjudication\, OUP 2024\, with commentary provided by Professor Ian Farrell of the University of Denver Sturm College of Law and Professor Carole Petersen of the University of Hawai'i William S. Richardson School of Law.
