Constitutional Conscience

Description:

"While many recent observers have accused American judges - especially Supreme Court justices - of being too driven by politics and ideology, others have argued that judges are justified in using their positions to advance personal views. Advocating a different approach - one that eschews ideology but still values personal perspective - H. Jefferson Powell makes a case for the centrality of individual conscience in constitutional decision making."--BOOK JACKET.
