Hein & Co., Inc. is pleased to introduce this classic, legal reprint for every institution! "One of the best contributions to the history of the subject..." 14 Colum. L. Rev. 548 (1914) THE AMERICAN DOCTRINE OF JUDICIAL SUPREMACY By Charles Grove Haines The purpose of this work, according to the author Haines, is to present in brief form, the history, scope and results of judicial control over legislation in the United States. "[Recently], the authority of the judiciary over legislation has received much attention and the effort to restrict this power has become one of the foremost political issues of the day. Notwithstanding the absorbing interest in this feature of American public law, only a few attempts have been made to present an account of its origin and development." - Preface Haines was a political scientist and professor at the University of California, Los Angeles for more than twenty years. Here, he has traced the history of the unique American Doctrine, its bases and sources, the conflict over its establishments and maintenance, and its present scope. He does this in three parts: Nature of the American Doctrine, Development of Judicial Supremacy, and Practice of Declaring Laws Invalid. "Whereas in practically all other governments the supreme power resides in the legislative branch, in the United States the ultimate source of power on most questions is the judiciary. This has molded a political situation without parallel in ancient or modern history. The style of this work is clear throughout, and the method adopted logical and convincing...does credit to the wide historical knowledge and genius for research displayed by the author." - 14 Colum.
