We just heard (via Tyler Cowen) that Judge Richard Posner has decided to retire from the bench, though we hope he will continue to write and teach. In his honor, here are a just few links relating to Judge Posner’s theories of judging:

1. Posner’s unimpeachable honesty (Glenn Reynolds)
2. Posner criticizes legal jargon (via ABA Journal)
3. Posner/Rakoff dialogue (via Slate)
4. The incoherence of Antonin Scalia (Richard Posner)
5. What do judges maximize? (Richard Posner)
6. Cass Sunstein’s eulogy of Posner (via Bloomberg)
