Over the last two decades, Latin American high courts have been opening themselves to the public through a variety of institutional innovations for social participation in the judicial decision-making process, such as public hearings and the acceptance of amicus curiae briefs. This paper explores such court behaviour through the analysis of an expert survey designed and implemented by the authors in ten Latin American countries during 2022.
