The Decline and Fall of the Supreme Court: Living Out the Nightmares of the Federalists

Autor Christophe Faille
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 mar 1995 – vârsta până la 17 ani
The Decline and Fall of the Supreme Court examines the contemporary work of the U.S. Supreme Court and the advice and consent role of the Senate with regard to nominees to the Court. After presenting historical background on the intentions of the federalists and 20th-century jurisprudence, the work describes the baleful effects of the recent theory known as legal realism. The author examines the most dramatic of those effects-the polarized, polarizing, and partisan confirmation hearings with which the United States has become familiar-beginning with Abe Fortas and culminating with Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas. This study will be of interest to scholars and laypeople in American history, political science, and law.
