Synopsis

This is one of the few book-length analyses of judicial review and public policy in very different parts of the world today. Donald W. Jackson and C. Neal Tate have gathered together respected scholars and set forth a framework for comparative analysis into the origins of judicial review, its use as a policy tool, and its exercise and impact in the policy-making process. Political scientists, public policy analysts, and public administrators will find this a thought-provoking study in comparative politics and public administration and a useful classroom text.

The text opens with an overview and a delineation of basic concepts and closes with a framework for analyzing the exercise of judicial review in policy making. The major part of the book offers case studies and analyses of the establishment of judicial review as a policy tool, and the impact of judicial review in various types of legal situations. These studies cover twelve countries, including the United States, Great Britain, Japan, India, Israel, and the USSR, among others. Chapter reference lists and a selected bibliography at the end of the book refer readers to current studies of importance.
