Description: The Jurisprudential Vision of Justice Antonin Scalia by David A. Schultz, Christopher E. Smith This analysis of the jurisprudence of Justice Antonin Scalia argues that his impact has been neither what conservatives hoped nor what liberals feared. The authors examine Scalias political and judicial philosophy, outlining areas of the law that he influenced. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description When Antonin Scalia was appointed to the Supreme Court in 1986, conservatives hoped he would become the intellectual leader of President Reagans judicial counter-revolution. In this first book-length analysis of Scalias jurisprudence, David A. Schultz and Christopher E. Smith argue that Scalias impact has been neither what conservatives hoped nor what liberals feared. The authors examine Scalias political and judicial philosophy and they outline the areas of the law that Scalia has most profoundly affected, particularly constitutional protections for property rights. Citing Scalias use of judicial review to check legislative power and his attempts to limit several types of individual rights developed during the Warren and Burger Courts, the authors conclude that Scalias decisions reflect an effort to create a post-Carolene Products jurisprudence and to form a new pattern of assumptions regarding the role of the Supreme Court in American society. This is essential reading for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the Supreme Court and constitutional law. Author Biography David A. Schultz is Professor in the Graduate School of Management at Hamline University in St Paul, Minnesota. Christopher E. Smith is associate professor of political science at the School of Criminal Justice, Michigan State University.
