Is judicial reasoning in Central Europe as formalistic as is often claimed? This book examines the Czech Supreme Court and Supreme Administrative Court in more detail, challenging the myth of 'Central European formalism' by conducting a new content analysis of the Czech courts of last resort. In doing so, it provides the first systematic, evidence-based analysis of their reasoning. The study reveals the distinct approaches of the two courts and offers a fresh perspective on the formalism debate. The study bridges the gap between legal theory and empirical legal studies, paving the way for further international comparisons.
