Abstract
The role of values in shaping law and judicial decisions has been the subject of extensive academic debate. Underpinning these debates is an assumption of a shared understanding of the concept of values. Yet, the term is diffuse and has been used to describe a range of constructs. This short chapter draws on theories from law and psychology to start to develop a shared understanding of legal values and a system of organising the values that shape judicial decision making.
