Inhaltsangabe
Abortion, affirmative action, the "right to die", pornography and free speech, homosexulaity and sex discrimination; as eagerly as the Supreme Court's rulings on these issues are awaited and as intently as they are studied, they never seem to settle anything once and for all. But something is settled in the process - in the incremental approach - as Cass Sunstein argues in this text. The text lays-out and celebrates the constellation of rights - involving both liberty and equality - that now commands consensus in American law. A guide to the Supreme Court, it offers a new understanding of the American Constitution, and of the relationship between democracy and constitutionalism, and between rights and self-government.

Críticas
In "One Case at a Time", Sunstein describes the current Supreme Court's 'judicial minimalism'--deciding cases as narrowly as possible, without widely applicable rules. This position, he urges, can support deliberative democracy, particularly if the issues involved are complex and no citizen consensus has emerged. Sunstein outlines his arguments and applies it in analyzing recent decisions on 'affirmative action, discrimination on the basis of sex and sexual orientation, the right to die, and new issues of free speech raised by...communications technologies.' He then addresses alternatives to minimalism, mainly Justice Scalia's 'democratic formalism' and the complaint that minimalist decisions lack theoretical depth as well as breadth, concluding by summarizing his view of the place of judicial minimalism in a democracy.--Mary Carroll "Booklist "
