Although behavioral economics research has long been based primarily on the decision-making of laypeople, it turns out that professional decision-makers (judges, prosecutors, lawyers, and legislators) are also affected by the same cognitive limitations and biases. The difference is that their decision-making takes place within institutionally structured frameworks that themselves act as architectures of choice.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The article presents examples from criminal and civil law in which subtle features of the decision-making environment significantly affect outcomes, and analyzes the dual role of some lawyers who are both decision-makers and architects of choice. Special attention is paid to the question of ethics: is guiding professional decision-makers less controversial than influencing laypeople, and under what conditions is it legitimate?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The article concludes with the thesis that architecture of choice is not only a problem, but also part of the solution, if it is informed, transparent, and consciously designed in accordance with the values \u200b\u200bof the legal system.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Mojca-123-slo|&#8211;et_global_heading_font_weight|||||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Full article\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>Full article in available here: <a href=\"https:\/\/inst-krim.si\/sentrix\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Arhitektura-pravnega-odlocanja.pdf\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-240252\">Arhitektura pravnega odlo\u010danja<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The article, written by Assoc.
