| Synopsis: |
This volume in "ABC-CLIO's About Federal Government" set looks at the history and daily operations of the federal judiciary, from district courts, to courts of appeal, to the Supreme Court. Bush v. Gore...contentious court nominations...ongoing battles over abortion rights and gay marriage...judges' lives under threat for their rulings...These and other recent incidents make it clear: The federal judiciary no longer stands at a remove from the nation's often volatile political passions. "The Judicial Branch of Federal Government: People, Process, and Politics" shows how the federal courts act as interpreters of the law, definers of rules, and shapers of policy, covering the judiciary throughout U.S. history and as it functions today. In one concise yet comprehensive resource, "The Judicial Branch of Federal Government" describes the constitutionally ascribed role of the courts and the pyramid structure of the federal judiciary (district courts, appeals courts to the Supreme Court).It also looks at the men and women who serve on the federal bench (who they are and how they are appointed), as well as the fascinating relationship of the federal courts with the legislative and executive branches, as well as with the 50 state court systems. |
