Book Are Judges Political

    Book Details:
  • Author : Cass R. Sunstein
  • Publisher : Rowman & Littlefield
  • Release : 2007-02-01
  • ISBN : 0815782357
  • Pages : 194 pages

Download or read book Are Judges Political written by Cass R. Sunstein and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2007-02-01 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, the United States has seen an intense debate about the composition of the federal judiciary. Are judges "activists"? Should they stop "legislating from the bench"? Are they abusing their authority? Or are they protecting fundamental rights, in a way that is indispensable in a free society? Are Judges Political? cuts through the noise by looking at what judges actually do. Drawing on a unique data set consisting of thousands of judicial votes, Cass Sunstein and his colleagues analyze the influence of ideology on judicial voting, principally in the courts of appeal. They focus on two questions: Do judges appointed by Republican Presidents vote differently from Democratic appointees in ideologically contested cases? And do judges vote differently depending on the ideological leanings of the other judges hearing the same case? After examining votes on a broad range of issues--including abortion, affirmative action, and capital punishment--the authors do more than just confirm that Democratic and Republican appointees often vote in different ways. They inject precision into an all-too-often impressionistic debate by quantifying this effect and analyzing the conditions under which it holds. This approach sometimes generates surprising results: under certain conditions, for example, Democrat-appointed judges turn out to have more conservative voting patterns than Republican appointees. As a general rule, ideology should not and does not affect legal judgments. Frequently, the law is clear and judges simply implement it, whatever their political commitments. But what happens when the law is unclear? Are Judges Political? addresses this vital question.

Book Le Tumulte Noir

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jody Blake
  • Publisher : Penn State Press
  • Release : 1999-01-01
  • ISBN : 9780271017532
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book Le Tumulte Noir written by Jody Blake and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jody Blake demonstrates in this book that although the impact of African-American music and dance in France was constant from 1900 to 1930, it was not unchanging. This was due in part to the stylistic development and diversity of African-American music and dance, from the prewar cakewalk and ragtime to the postwar Charleston and jazz. Successive groups of modernists, beginning with the Matisse and Picasso circle in the 1900s and concluding with the Surrealists and Purists in the 1920s, constructed different versions of la musique and la danse negre. Manifested in creative and critical works, these responses to African-American music and dance reflected the modernists' varying artistic agendas and historical climates.

Book The Defense Counsel

    Book Details:
  • Author : William F. McDonald
  • Publisher : SAGE Publications, Incorporated
  • Release : 1983-08
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 320 pages

Download or read book The Defense Counsel written by William F. McDonald and published by SAGE Publications, Incorporated. This book was released on 1983-08 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents new research and thinking about the role of the defense counsel in the American criminal justice system. The right to counsel is guaranteed, but can an overworked public defender who is paid for the number of cases taken on really be compared with expensive private attorneys? Original essays explore such issues as performance measurement to ensure proper counsel, the differences between public and private defenders, and the dwindling number of private defense counsels.

Book America and the Armenian Genocide of 1915

Download or read book America and the Armenian Genocide of 1915 written by Jay Winter and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-01-08 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before Rwanda and Bosnia, and before the Holocaust, the first genocide of the twentieth century happened in Turkish Armenia in 1915, when approximately one million people were killed. This volume is an account of the American response to this atrocity. The first part sets up the framework for understanding the genocide: Sir Martin Gilbert, Vahakn Dadrian and Jay Winter provide an analytical setting for nine scholarly essays examining how Americans learned of this catastrophe and how they tried to help its victims. Knowledge and compassion, though, were not enough to stop the killings. A terrible precedent was born in 1915, one which has come to haunt the United States and other Western countries throughout the twentieth century and beyond. To read the essays in this volume is chastening: the dilemmas Americans faced when confronting evil on an unprecedented scale are not very different from the dilemmas we face today.

Book The Idle Warriors

    Book Details:
  • Author : Kerry Thornley
  • Publisher : Lulu.com
  • Release : 2019-02-16
  • ISBN : 9780359436408
  • Pages : 220 pages

Download or read book The Idle Warriors written by Kerry Thornley and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-02-16 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So what was Lee Harvey Oswald really like? Kerry Thornley should know! Between 1959 and 1961, Marine Corps Pvt. Kerry W. Thornley wrote a novel about a fellow Marine who had defected to the USSR. Little did he know that his friend, Lee Harvey Oswald, would later be accused of assassinating President John F. Kennedy. Through the fictional character Johnny Shellburn, ""The Idle Warriors"" gives rare insight into the mind of the man who allegedly committed the most infamous crime of the century. ""The Idle Warriors"" is the story of a troop of Marines in the Far East - getting laid, pulling pranks, eating, drinking, and talking about life. It's a story similar to any number of films and books from that time, both in style and content. But because the book was based on Oswald, it remains an eerie novelty, like the appearance of Fidel Castro as an extra in a Busby Berkeley film. Kerry's introduction itself makes the book well worth reading.
