"Constitutional courts in many countries seek to constrain elected actors often by
striking down or vetoing their laws. A large proportion of these courts select their
judges through a mixed selection method which allows different institutions, often
branches of government, to each select a specific number of judges to the court. This
book investigates how the mixed selection method operates in practice on the Chilean
Constitutional Tribunal, and the Colombian Constitutional Court. Separate institutions
choose different types of constitutional adjudicators to these two courts who in turn
have different propensities for vetoing or striking down laws. The presence of different
types of judges appearing on any case and quorum rules inform individual judges' votes
and decisions of the full court. Studying the relationship between judges' selector
and court composition provides a new approach to understanding individual and aggregate
judicial behavior on mixed selection courts. The study employs statistical methods
on original vote and case level data and analyzes legislative histories, cases, and
information gleaned from interviews to understand decision-making under this selection
method. The study has implications related to how judicial selection and other institutional
rules influence policy."
