The application of the Political Question Doctrine is at a crucial
crossroads as the Supreme Court continues to test new 'War on
Terrorism' initiatives. Historically, the political question
doctrine has held the courts from resolving constitutional issues
that are better left to other departments of government, as a way
of maintaining the system of checks and balances. However, the
doctrine's many ambiguities have allowed a roughly defined
juxtaposition of the branches of government during previous years
when the Republic was concerned with both international matters and
those within its continental confines. The Political Question
Doctrine and the Supreme Court of the United States discusses the
gradual changes in the parameters of the doctrine, including its
current position dealing with increasingly extraterritorial
concerns. Nada Mourtada-Sabbah and Bruce E. Cain bring together
critical essays that examine the broad issues of judicial
involvement in politics and the future of the doctrine. With a wide
range of historical and theoretical perspectives, this book will
stimulate debate among those interested in political science and
legal studies.
