An interdisciplinary workshop will systematically probe how the many insights from the empirical study of law, courts, and judging have direct normative implications concerning how policy and institutions ought to be designed and executed. This workshop will bring together leading empirical researchers and will focus on a breadth of topics in law and courts. Empirical political scientists who study law and courts have not always made their work accessible to relevant policymakers. However, contemporary research on the context of the judicial process has produced numerous insights that could be useful in policymaking. The question guiding the workshop is: How can these empirical findings be used to make judgments about how judicial processes, institutions, and policies ought to be designed, operated, and executed? The PIs will produce an edited volume from this workshop that will disseminate research in a framework that could prove useful to policymakers. The workshop's intellectual merit rests in engaging in interdisciplinary field-building that will highlight how academic, empirical research can be directly relevant to broader policy debates. The workshop's broader impact would be in demonstrating how empirical research is directly relevant to policymakers and the public. With appropriate dissemination, it could contribute to efficient and effective judicial institutions and processes. The workshop will bring together a truly diverse and interdisciplinary mix of scholars, including senior and junior men and women, some from Ph.D. granting departments and some from B.A. institutions.

跨学科研讨会将系统地探讨法律，法院和审判实证研究中的许多见解如何具有有关如何设计和执行政策和机构的直接规范性含义。该研讨会将召集领先的经验研究人员，并将专注于法律和法院的广度。研究法律和法院的经验政治科学家并不总是使相关决策者可以访问其工作。但是，当代对司法程序背景的研究产生了许多在决策中有用的见解。指导研讨会的问题是：如何使用这些经验发现来判断如何应设计，操作和执行司法程序，机构和政策？ PI将从该研讨会中产生一个编辑的卷，该卷将在一个可能对政策制定者有用的框架中传播研究。 研讨会的智力优点在于参与跨学科实地建设，这将突出学术，经验研究如何与更广泛的政策辩论直接相关。研讨会的更广泛影响是证明实证研究与决策者和公众如何直接相关。通过适当的传播，它可能有助于高效有效的司法机构和过程。该研讨会将汇集真正多样化的学者组合，包括高级男女，有些来自博士学位。授予部门和一些学士学位机构。
