This simple yet startling fact is impossible to deny, but few students of the Court have seriously considered its implications. In Rationing the Constitution, Andrew Coan explains how the Court's limited capacity shapes U.S. constitutional law and argues that the limits of judicial capacity powerfully constrain Supreme Court decision-making on many of the most important constitutional questions, spanning federalism, separation of powers, and individual rights. Examples include the commerce power, presidential powers, Equal Protection, and regulatory takings. The implications for U.S. constitutional law are profound. Lawyers, academics, and social activists pursuing social reform through the courts must consider whether their goals can be accomplished within the constraints of judicial capacity.-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Understanding judicial capacity -- Structural and normative underpinnings -- The judicial capacity model -- Refining the model -- Testing the model -- The judicial capacity model applied -- Federalism -- The commerce power -- The spending power -- Separation of powers -- The nondelegation doctrine -- Presidential administration -- Individual rights -- Equal protection -- Takings -- Positive and normative implications -- Judicial capacity and the constitutional choice set -- Judicial capacity and judicial competence -- Judicial capacity and judicial independence. 610 10 $a United States. $b Supreme Court. 610 17 $a United States. $b Supreme Court. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00529481 650 0 $a Constitutional law $z United States. 650 0 $a Judges $x Workload $z United States. 650 0 $a Judicial process $z United States. 650 7 $a Constitutional law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00875797 650 7 $a Judges $x Workload. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00984562 650 7 $a Judicial process. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00984705 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318012851.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5181DF4C0B6411EAA467CE0D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
