Publisher Description As the leading legal voice of the American conservative movement, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia has challenged the assumptions and legal methodology of American liberals. In this study of the development of Justice Scalias legal principles, political scientist Richard Brisbin explores the foundation and elaboration of the justices conservative political vision. Scalias jurisprudence, the author contends, values order and stability over pragmatism and experiment, relying on a majoritarian view rather than on any nucleus of founding principles embedded in the American constitution. After reviewing Scalias legal experiences before joining the Supreme Court and describing the influences on his political and legal thought, Brisbin undertakes a detailed analysis of Scalias Supreme Court voting record and opinions. The conservative philosophy emerging from Scalias legal decisions, Brisbin argues, assumes the legitimacy and propriety of political regimes functioning under the rule of law.It disciplines - sometimes harshly - inappropriate uses of liberty and accepts the proposition that the law can serve as an effective means to structure, interpret and control political conflicts. Brisbin concludes that the language of Scalias legal opinions reinforces a politics of inequality. Scalia routinely excludes from his legal discussions the powerful effect of social and economic factors on equality under the law, and he ignores the failure of supposedly fair legal procedures to eliminate injustice in American society.
