| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The process-based concept of law conceptualizes law as chain of interactions among institutions and distributes law making power according to each institutional competence. It was brought by the Legal Process School and has become established as frame of mind of lawyers and legal scholars in contemporary America. In that framework, legislature enjoys deference to its decision as primary institution of policymaking, but its vulnerability to interest politics sometimes produces distortion and bias in adopted rules. The role of judiciary is maintenance of process of continuing open deliberation; it is understood as an effort to pursue possible legal discourse in the context of fractured substantive values.
