Beschreibung:
This book explores how the lower federal court appointment process became vastly politicized in the modern era. Scherer develops a theory of "elite mobilization," positing that lower court appointments have always been used by politicians for electoral purposes, but because of two historic changes to American institutions in the 1950s and 1960s--the breakdown of the old party system, and a federal judiciary reception to expanding individuals' constitutional rights--politicians shifted from an appointment system dominated by patronage to a system dominated by new policy-oriented appointment strategies. >
