Litigation, case, dispute processing, courts, claims, Litigio, caso, proceso de disputas, tribunales, demandasResumen
Este artículo se pregunta por el concepto de “caso” en un tribunal, haciendo un esfuerzo por aclarar preocupaciones subyacentes a los debates sobre si hay “demasiada” o “demasiado poca” litigación. Una perspectiva sobre los litigios va de abajo arriba, examinando las consideraciones y motivos de las partes que interponen una demanda civil. Esa perspectiva abarca teorías sobre el litigio y las estructuras económicas y sociales, la transformación de las disputas, la participación política y la psicología. Una visión alternativa, de arriba abajo, examina los litigios desde la perspectiva del gobierno, tomando también en consideración sus intereses en la resolución de conflictos, el control social y las capacidades institucionales de los tribunales. El artículo revisa y critica literatura existente sobre estas perspectivas, y llega a la conclusión de que es importante integrarlas.
