Synopsis

This unique collection of articles, case law excerpts, speeches, and primary source materials exposes students to the role of the judiciary and demonstrates how it works within American democracy. Major topics of judicial politics are covered across eleven chapters through selections that pique the imagination and interest of students. Traditional readings provide a foundation for each chapter and more contemporary ones reflect how participants and non-academic observers think about critical issues in judicial politics. Additional writings show how political scientists think about and study the field.
