American Politicians Confront the Court: Opposition Politics and Changing Responses to Judicial Power
Engel, Stephen M. (Assistant Professor of Politics, Bates College, Maine)
When judicial power appears to remain secure, what explains the recurrence of hostilities toward it? Addressing this question anew, Stephen Engel points to the gradual acceptance of dissenting views of the Constitution. This view of such a behavioral and ideational shift explains politicians' varying tactics to manipulate judicial authority.
