Language and text in adjudication and dispute settlement in administrative tribunals and related settingsTools Jenkings, Kenneth Neil (1997) Language and text in adjudication and dispute settlement in administrative tribunals and related settings. PhD thesis, University of Nottingham.
AbstractThis thesis has four main objectives; a) to provide an understanding of Legal Aid Appeals Tribunals, from a description of individual cases and the activities that occur therein, focusing in the main on those at which an appellant and/or their representative is present; b) to explore the use of documentation in the tribunal practices of tribunal panel members, legal aid clerks, appellants and their representatives; c) to explore the possibilities that post-analytic ethnomethodology as the adopted research methodology allows, and to clarify what this radical research 'programme' entails; and d) taking legal positivism as an epistopic to explore its possible ethnomethodological respecification in light of the descriptions of practice in legal aid tribunals.
