评分

尽管美国宪法制定者们起了个好头,对法院寄予厚望,但马伯里诉麦迪逊过了五十年才有第二个审查案例而不至于使其成为绝响。事实上,从认为法院没用、自己不喜欢的判决大可不遵守到建立对司法的信仰,美国经历了长期的历史过程。这个历史过程表明,司法独立,不是司法独大,更不是期待司法成为救世主,而是期待以平衡的艺术达至更好的社会。为达至平衡,法官采用了实用主义的解释路径。然而,关于司法信仰的国民教育,美国依然任重而道远,毕竟调查显示,在这个三权分立的国家,只有1/3的美国人能够说出司法、行政、司法这三个分支的名字,还有3/4的美国人干脆根本不知道法官和立法者之间到底有什么区别。

Making Our Democracy Work 在线电子书 著者简介

Stephen Gerald Breyer (pronounced /ˈbraɪər/; born August 15, 1938) is an Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Appointed by Democratic President Bill Clinton in 1994, and known for his pragmatic approach to constitutional law, Breyer is generally associated with the more liberal side of the Court.[1]

Following a clerkship with Supreme Court Associate Justice Arthur Goldberg in 1964, Breyer became well-known as a law professor and lecturer at Harvard Law School starting in 1967. There he specialized in the area of administrative law, writing a number of influential text books that remain in use today. He held other prominent positions before being nominated for the Supreme Court, including special assistant to the United States Assistant Attorney General for Antitrust, and assistant special prosecutor on the Watergate Special Prosecution Force in 1973.

In his 2005 book Active Liberty, Breyer made his first attempt to systematically lay out his views on legal theory, arguing that the judiciary should seek to resolve issues to encourage popular participation in governmental decisions.

Making Our Democracy Work 在线电子书 图书描述

The Supreme Court is one of the most extraordinary institutions in our system of government. Charged with the responsibility of interpreting the Constitution, the nine unelected justices of the Court have the awesome power to strike down laws enacted by our elected representatives. Why does the public accept the Court’s decisions as legitimate and follow them, even when those decisions are highly unpopular? What must the Court do to maintain the public’s faith? How can the Court help make our democracy work? These are the questions that Justice Stephen Breyer tackles in this groundbreaking book.

Today we assume that when the Court rules, the public will obey. But Breyer declares that we cannot take the public’s confidence in the Court for granted. He reminds us that at various moments in our history, the Court’s decisions were disobeyed or ignored. And through investigations of past cases, concerning the Cherokee Indians, slavery, and Brown v. Board of Education, he brilliantly captures the steps—and the missteps—the Court took on the road to establishing its legitimacy as the guardian of the Constitution.

Justice Breyer discusses what the Court must do going forward to maintain that public confidence and argues for interpreting the Constitution in a way that works in practice. He forcefully rejects competing approaches that look exclusively to the Constitution’s text or to the eighteenth-century views of the framers. Instead, he advocates a pragmatic approach that applies unchanging constitutional values to ever-changing circumstances—an approach that will best demonstrate to the public that the Constitution continues to serve us well. The Court, he believes, must also respect the roles that other actors—such as the president, Congress, administrative agencies, and the states—play in our democracy, and he emphasizes the Court’s obligation to build cooperative relationships with them.

Finally, Justice Breyer examines the Court’s recent decisions concerning the detainees held at Guantánamo Bay, contrasting these decisions with rulings concerning the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II. He uses these cases to show how the Court can promote workable government by respecting the roles of other constitutional actors without compromising constitutional principles.

Making Our Democracy Work is a tour de force of history and philosophy, offering an original approach to interpreting the Constitution that judges, lawyers, and scholars will look to for many years to come. And it further establishes Justice Breyer as one of the Court’s greatest intellectuals and a leading legal voice of our time.

"为什么法院说什么,美国人都会照办?“当一位非洲法官向布雷耶大法官提出这个问题时,我真的很想狠狠的拥抱这位老姐,大喊一声知己呀,这可是问出了我憋了很久的问题呀。为什么美国人民偏偏要听从既没有”钱袋子“,也没有掌握”枪杆子“的九个小老头,而且这些个老头偏...

法国贵族托克维尔在其传世之作《论美国的民主》中有句名言:“在美国,几乎所有政治问题迟早都要变成司法问题。”托克维尔如此结论,旨在强调美国的法学家精神无所不在,“大部分公务人员都是或者曾经是法学家”,法学家精神“扩展到整个社会,深入到最低阶层,使全体人民都沾...

这本书合着任东来的《美国宪政历程:影响美国的25个司法大案》一起看,收益颇丰,给我印象最深的,美国宪法保护少数人的权利,保护言论自由,不是空炮,而是实实在在发生的。 这本书由实际的案例出发,穿插着法官判案的原则与最高法院遵循的原则,解释了美国人民为何会执行最高...
