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. Engaging, accessible selections, from sources such as contemporary court cases, diary entries, oral arguments, and articles written by judges, encourage students to read assignments thoroughly. Selections that represent the perspective of actors who work within the judicial process or engage it as participants, provide students an inside look at the field. The chapters and structure of the text complement most primary judicial politics and process texts.
