Book Synopsis Constitutional Courts and Deliberative Democracy by : Conrado Mendes
Book excerpt: It is often argued that courts are better suited for impartial deliberation than partisan legislatures, and that this capacity justifies handing them substantial powers of judicial review. This book provides a thorough analysis of those claims, introducing the theory of deliberative capacity and its implications for institutional design.
