Based on fieldwork in Argentina and Brazil, this study identifies striking cross-national variation in inter-branch interactions. Diana Kapiszewski argues that the high courts’ contrasting characters – political in Argentina and statesman-like in Brazil – shaped their decisions on controversial cases and conditioned how elected leaders responded to their rulings, channeling inter-branchinteractions into persistent patterns.
