Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER In the past few decades, legislatures throughout the world have suffered from gridlock. In democracies, laws and policies are just as soon unpicked as made. It seems that Congress and Parliaments cannot forge progress or consensus. Moreover, courts often overturn decisions made by elected representatives. In the absence of effective politicians, many turn to the courts to solve political and moral questions. Rulings from the Supreme Courts in the United States and United Kingdom, or the European court in Strasbourg may seem to end the debate but the division and debate does not subside. In fact, the absence of democratic accountability leads to radicalisation. Judicial overreach cannot make up for the shortcomings of politicians. This is especially acute in the field of human rights. For instance, who should decide on abortion or prisoners' rights to vote, elected politicians or appointed judges? Expanding on arguments first laid out in the 2019 Reith Lectures, Jonathan Sumption argues that the time has come to return some problems to the politicians. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR011164189

Zustand: Bueno. : En 'Trials of the State', Jonathan Sumption examina la relación entre el derecho y la política, argumentando que los tribunales están asumiendo cada vez más funciones políticas. El autor analiza cómo las decisiones judiciales están afectando a la política y la sociedad, y explora las implicaciones de este cambio para el futuro de la democracia. Sumption plantea la necesidad de devolver ciertos problemas a los políticos, argumentando que los jueces están interpretando las leyes de manera cada vez más amplia, lo que puede llevar a una falta de responsabilidad democrática y a la radicalización.
