A Comparative History of Judicial Referencing in the United Kingdom and Germany

该研究项目旨在对英国和德国法院使用的引用和引用进行比较历史分析。这解决了两个主要的研究问题：法院如何以及为什么在判决中纳入引文和引文？在不同的法律制度下，这些技术是如何在不同的情况下演变的？鉴于参照在判决中的普遍存在，本研究对司法决策的透明度和说服力具有很高的相关性。除了比较历史法学的方法论外，我的研究还借鉴了语言学来考察司法参照的手段和目的。主要部分致力于19世纪末和21世纪初英国和德国这些技术的比较历史。鉴于组织法院进行司法审判的重要性，《司法法》(1873/1875)和《德国帝国判例法》(1877/1879)时期允许将普通法和大陆法系的司法审判与法院结构重组的背景进行比较。将这一点与21世纪的司法审判进行对比，维斯霍勒克先生打算阐明技术创新和欧洲(解体)一体化对司法审判的影响。

The research project aims at a comparative-historical analysis of quoting and citing as employed by courts in the United Kingdom and Germany. This addresses two main research questions: How and why do courts incorporate quotations and citations in their judgments? And how have these techniques evolved under varying circumstances in different legal systems? Given the ubiquity of referencing in judgements, this research is highly relevant for the transparency and persuasiveness of judicial decision-making. In addition to the methodologies of comparative-historical jurisprudence, my research draws on linguistics to examine the means and ends of judicial referencing. The mainsection is dedicated to a comparative history of these techniques in the United Kingdom and Germany in the late 19th and the early 21st century. Given the importance of the organisation of courts for judicial referencing, the period of the Judicature Acts (1873/1875) and the German Reichsjustizgesetze (1877/1879) allows for a comparison of judicial referencing in a common law and a civil law system against the backdrop of a reorganised court structure. Contrasting this withjudicial referencing in the 21st century, Mr Wieschollek intends to shed light on the impact of technical innovations and European (dis-)integration on judicial referencing
