Through statistical modeling and other quantitative analyses, Justin DePlato examines the ability of the presidency and the Senate to influence and shape policy through the Court's nomination process, docket selection, and judicial retirements. The Court operating as a political institution threatens to affect, where it hasn't already outright intervened, civil liberties and social issues in the modern era and represents a controversial mechanic in the workings of American statecraft.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: The Court, Ideology and Decision making Chapter 2: Judicial Nominations and Ideology Chapter 3: The Diminishing Docket Chapter 4: Judicial Retirements ","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51040648790359,"sku":"9781498512183","price":68.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781498512183.jpg?v=1750947387","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-united-states-supreme-court-and-politics-9781498512183","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
