“…However, research has revealed that press releases vary in both quantity and quality. For example, while the US Supreme Court only announces forthcoming rulings (Hitt et al, 2019) and the Australian High Court briefly summarizes its rulings (Spencer, 2017), the South Korean Supreme Court publishes irregular and infrequent press releases (Park and Youm, 2017). Despite these differences, no comprehensive research has yet been conducted that analyses which institutional conditions influence the publication of press releases.…”

It remains unclear what institutional characteristics determine the publication of press releases by constitutional courts. Research has revealed that courts use press releases to disseminate information; however, little is known about when exactly courts choose to publish a press release on a ruling. By focusing on institutional elements, this study argues that press releases form a part of judicial public relations and are used to enhance openness and transparency surrounding specific court rulings. This argument is tested empirically via a novel dataset on the activities of the German Federal Constitutional Court. Based on 1131 senate rulings decided between 1996 and 2018, this study demonstrates that proceeding types and changes to the status quo are the main characteristics that determine the publication of court press releases, whereas intra-judicial and internal conflicts are revealed to be less influential.

Rights Claiming in South Korea

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Although rights-based claims are diversifying and opportunities and resources for claims-making have improved, obtaining rights protections and catalysing social change in South Korea remain challenging processes. This volume examines how different groups in South Korea have defined and articulated grievances and mobilized to remedy them. It explores developments in the institutional contexts within which rights claiming occurs and in the sources of support available for utilizing different claims-making channels. Drawing on scores of original interviews, readings of court rulings and statutes, primary archival and digital sources, and interpretive analysis of news media coverage in Korean, this volume illuminates rights in action. The chapters uncover conflicts over contending rights claims, expose disparities between theory and practice in the law, trace interconnections among rights-based movements, and map emerging trends in the use of rights language. Case studies examine the rights of women, workers, people with disabilities, migrants, and sexual minorities.

Öz Yargıya güven bir bütün olarak siyasal sisteme duyulan toplumsal güvenin bir parçası anlamında önemli görülmektedir. Bu kapsamda yargıya güveni pekiştirecek bazı uygulamalar bulunmaktadır. Bu uygulamalar özellikle bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerinin de gelişmesiyle yaygınlaşmaya başlamıştır. Anayasa mahkemesi özellikle bireysel başvuru vasıtasıyla bireyler açısından bir güvence niteliğindedir. Anayasa Mahkemesinin vatandaşla iletişimini sosyal medya kullanımı üzerinden değerlendiren bu çalışma, Mahkemenin Twitter hesabını ne amaçla kullandığına odaklanmaktadır. Bu kapsamda 2022 yılında paylaşılan tweetler incelenerek içerik analizi yöntemiyle değerlendrilmiştir. Yapılan analiz sonucuna göre Mahkeme, beklendiği gibi, en çok bireysel başvuru ve norm denetimi kararlarıyla ilgili tweetler paylaşmıştır. Bunlar dışında mahkeme faaliyetlerine ilişkin yapılan yayınlar ve istatistik bilgileri en çok gönderilen tweetler içerisinde yer almaktadır. Mahkemenin takipçi sayısını göz önünde bulundurduğumuzda paylaşılan içeriklerin yeterince etkileşim almadığı ifade edilebilir. Ancak mahkemenin sosyal medya kullanımı şeffaflığa, farkındalığa ve meşruiyetine sunduğu katkı açısından önemli görülmektedir.
