Abstract/Description:

The tension between constitutionalism and administrative arbitrariness complicates regulation of the Russian judiciary, a large bureaucracy that (a) mediates this tension through the mechanisms of acceptance, adaptation and resistance in order to conserve and reproduce internal judicial lines of accountability and control; and (b) produces paradoxical outcomes of judicial performance.
