Yargısal Tutum Kavramına Sinemadan Bir Örnek: Eşitlik Savaşçısı Filmi

Yargı hepimizin hayatıyla iç içe bir alan olması sebebiyle ilgi odağıdır. Yargı kararları herkesin hayatına bir şekilde dokunduğundan da her zaman tartışma konusu olmuşlardır. Akademide dava boyunca nasıl ve neye dayanarak karar verildiği hukuk ve siyaset bilimi ortak alanı olan yargısal karar verme çalışmalarının alt dalı olan yargısal tutum literatüründe incelenmektedir. Akademik çalışmalar dışında da kararları eleştiriye fazlaca maruz kalan yargıçların ele alındığı alanlardan biri de sinemadır. Bu çalışmada Eşitlik Savaşçısı filminde baş karakter olan Ruth Bader Ginsburg ve Moritz v. Commissioner davası örneğiyle yargısal tutum kavramı değerlendirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda ise filmde de yansıtıldığı üzere yargısal karar vermenin kişisel özelliklerden de etkilenerek tutumlara dayanan ve yasalar çerçevesinde de olsa yargıcın geçmiş tecrübeleri ve dönemin şartları gibi etkilere açık olduğu görülmüştür.

An Example of Judicial Attitude: On the Basis of Sex Movie

Judiciary is the focus of attention because it is an area intertwined with our lives. Judicial decisions have always been the subject of discussion, as they touch everyone's life in some way. In the academy, how and on what basis the decision is made throughout the case is examined in the literature of judicial attitude, which is a common area of law and political science under the judicial decision-making studies. One of the areas where judges whose decisions are exposed to criticism outside of academic studies are dealt with is cinema. In this study, the concept of judicial attitude has been tried to be evaluated with the example of “On the Basis of Sex“movie which is about Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s life and Moritz v. the Commissioner case. As a result of the study, as reflected in the film, it has been seen that judicial decision-making is also influenced by personal characteristics, based on attitudes and open to influences such as the previous experiences of the judge and the conditions of the period, albeit within the framework of the law.
