Robert Bork: The Tempting of America. (New York: The Free Press, 1989. Pp. xiv, 432. $22.50.)
In the last third of The Tempting of America Robert Bork relives the painful ordeal of his lost nomination to the Supreme Court. Any sentient American then alive already knows that story: the campaign against him was full of half-truths, distortions, and just plain lies. Bork adds some confirming anecdotes, and I congratulate him for telling the tale candidly but without rancor. The loss is ours. In my opinion, Bork would have been among the two or three greatest justices of the last …

Principles, Politics, And Constitutional Law, Mark Tushnet
Michigan Law Review
The contrast in Senator Thurmond's performance in hearings concerning Judge Bork, whose nomination he supported, and Justice Marshall, whose nomination he opposed, suggests the apparently cynical view that one's position on the proper scope of senatorial inquiry during a nomination depends upon one's position on the merits of the nomination. Much has been written, usually provoked by controversial nominations, about the proper scope of senatorial inquiry. The press of immediate controversy, however, diverts attention from more fundamental issues about the nature of constitutional government, to which I devote this essay.

Slapp Suits: A Slap At The First Amendment, Ralph Michael Stein
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation, or SLAPP suits, as they are commonly called, are a growing nationwide phenomenon which imperil the protection afforded by the petition clause of the first amendment to the United States Constitution. These suits also implicate fundamental freedom guarantees of the various state constitutions. My focus today, however, will be largely on the first amendment.
Is Law Politics?, Philip Chase Bobbitt
Is Law Politics?, Philip Chase Bobbitt
Faculty Scholarship
Red, White, and Blue addresses the pervasive presence of five general theories of American constitutional law. These theories reflect particular jurisprudential ideologies governing, among other things, the legitimacy of certain arguments, the appropriateness of certain occasions for judicial intervention and the constitutional basis for judicial review. What makes this book interesting and important is that it provides an unwitting or at least unself-conscious example of the general theorizing it wishes to explain. For this reason, its descriptions of the particular family of theories that characterize American constitutional jurisprudence are distorted, while it disclaims any account of the particular set of …

A Job For The Judges: The Judiciary And The Constitution In A Massive And Complex Society, Neil K. Komesar
Michigan Law Review
This article attempts that task by exploring the elements of institutional choice in constitutional law. Part I takes an overview of the general division of decisionmaking responsibility between the political processes and the courts. It also examines the failures of existing theories to take account of this division of responsibility. Part II identifies two theories of political malfunction - those circumstances in which political processes are subject to significant doubt or distrust and, therefore, prime candidates for judicial review. Part III examines the characteristics - limits, biases, and abilities - of the judiciary and the potential for judicial response to …

The Confirmation Process: Law Or Politics?, Henry Paul Monaghan
The Confirmation Process: Law Or Politics?, Henry Paul Monaghan
Faculty Scholarship
In testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, I argued (and still believe) that Judge Robert Bork possessed surpassing qualifications for an appointment to the Supreme Court. Subsequently, I became persuaded that my submission was incomplete. Additional argument was necessary to establish that my testimony, if accepted, imposed a constitutional duty on senators to vote for confirmation. To my surprise, further reflection convinces me that no such argument is possible.
The Authoritarian Impulse In Constitutional Law, Robin West
The Authoritarian Impulse In Constitutional Law, Robin West
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
Should there be greater participation by legislators and citizens in constitutional debate, theory, and decision-making? An increasing number of legal theorists from otherwise divergent perspectives have recently argued against what Paul Brest calls the "principle of judicial exclusivity" in our constitutional processes. These theorists contend that because issues of public morality in our culture either are, or tend to become, constitutional issues, all political actors, and most notably legislators and citizens, should consider the constitutional implications of the moral issues of the day. Because constitutional questions are essentially moral questions about how active and responsible citizens should constitute themselves, we …
