Original language description
This article analyzes the concept of judicial accountability. It builds on three recent books (?Independence, Accountability, and the Judiciary? edited by Guy Canivet, Mads Andenas and Duncan Fairgrieve; ?Transitional Justice, Judicial Accountability andthe Rule of Law? by Hakeem Yusuf; and ?Judicial Accountabilities in New Europe: From Rule of Law to Quality of Justice? by Daniela Piana) that deal with judicial accountability and suggests avenues for further research. In section 1, I briefly summarizethe content and key arguments of the three recent books on judicial accountability. Section 2 focuses on the relationship between judicial accountability and the concept of accountability. Section 3 deals with the three key questions of judicial accountability: accountability of whom, to whom, and for what. Section 4 is devoted to the role of cultural factors in holding judges to account.
