Produktinformationen zu „The Judge as Political Theorist: Contemporary Constitutional Review “
"This is a book by a political scientist that goes well beyond the political-science literature on constitutional courts and constitutional adjudication. Robertson sees new types of constitutions emerging that are not just legal documents structuring the political system, but are designed to give binding force to those values to which a society aspires, in most cases after a deep break in their history. This is a remarkable piece of research."--Dieter Grimm, Humboldt University of Berlin and Yale Law School
"I very much enjoyed reading "The Judge as Political Theorist." I learned an immense amount. The book will be useful both to legal academics and to students."--Sanford V. Levinson, University of Texas, Austin
