The myth of the imperial judiciary

why the right is wrong about the courts

"The Myth of the Imperial Judiciary explores the anti-judicial ideological trend of the American right, refuting these claims and taking a realistic look at the role of courts in our democracy to show that conservatives have a highly unrealistic conception of their power. Kozlowski first assesses the validity of the conservative view of the Founding Fathers' intent, arguing that courts have played an assertive role in our politics since their establishment.

He then considers contemporary judicial powers to show that conservatives have greatly overstated the extent to which they now determine our politics and the extent to which they remain subject to political controls."--BOOK JACKET.
