Justice in Social Context

Abstract

This publication is framed by the most recent wave of judicial training, which is training of judicial operators in the social context of justice system users. We have identified several international experiences in which the institutions responsible for judicial training have incorporated methodologies focused on training judicial operators about the social, cultural or racial context of the people who access the judicial system. Specifically, this publication includes experiences that have been developed in Anglo-Saxon systems like those of Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Israel and in civil law contexts such as Argentina’s national justice system. We are very grateful to the experts who have contributed with their articles to this project.
