Nixon's Court: His Challenge to Judicial Liberalism and Its Political Consequences by Kevin J. McMahon
English | 2011 | ISBN: 0226561194 | 360 pages | PDF | 1,8 MB
Most analysts have deemed Richard Nixon’s challenge to the judicial liberalism of the Warren Supreme Court a failure—“a counterrevolution that wasn’t.” Nixon’s Court offers an alternative assessment. Kevin J. McMahon reveals a Nixon whose public rhetoric was more conservative than his administration’s actions and whose policy towards the Court was more subtle than previously recognized.
