In this paper, Linn Hammergren takes up the challenge of analyzing the record of experience withjudicial councils in Latin America and extracting key lessons. She is extraordinarily well qualified forthis task. Ms. Hammergren has worked for over fifteen years on rule of law reform programs, firstfor the U.S. Agency for International Development and more recently for the World Bank. She hasworked primarily in Latin America, including many years managing major judicial reform assistanceprojects in the region, but has also worked on rule of law reform in other parts of the world. Herwork as an aid practitioner comes on top of a distinguished career as a political scientist. |
