Thiook adopts a discursive psychological approach to judges'judicial behaviors. Based ona close scrutiny ofjudges' discursive actions， this research argues that judges do not adjudicate merely by law， but aly what they care about as a social being. Their care structure is manifested in their discourse， situated and transportable identit：ies performed in their moment——to-m，oment institutional discourse practice. What sets this research apart from other identitv-related theorizations is that identity here is not regarded as the factor determining judges' judiaal behavior but the resources judges mobilize to Iegitimatize or rationalize their discursive actions. This theory reonentation can highlight the dynamic tension between structure and contingency in judicial practice and shed lights on the instrumentali.ty and temporality of judges' judicial behavior. Given this，legal concepts such as ‘justice' ， ‘kcticity' ， ‘legitinacy'，etc.are also ject to respecification.
