【Abstract】 The author analyses the relationship between overthrow of precedents and institutional change, and explores whether the demonstration of overthrow of precedents can be used to analyze the legitimacy of institutional change. Interpreting the Janus and Wayfair cases decided by the Supreme Court of the United States in June 2018, the author summarizes the justification of overthrowing precedents from the perspective of institutional change, and tries to analyze the justification of institutional change by referring to the above-mentioned overthrowing precedents. The opinions of the court comprehensively demonstrated the overthrow of precedents, and the court put forward five considerations, namely, the quality of precedent demonstration, the practical workability of precedent establishment rules, the consistency of precedents with other relevant precedents, the development after the establishment of precedents, and the trust interests of the precedent. Although the overthrow of precedents is quite different from the institutional reforms, its argumentation framework and specific reasons are worth learning, which has certain enlightenment significance in the justification and rationality of institutional reforms.更多还原
