JUDICIAL CONTROL. COMPARATIVE ESSAYS ON

Description

This book is about various aspects of judicial control of the legislature and of the executive. The assumption, central in all contributions, is the growing importance of the judicial activity in modern society. This compilation of essays sets out to analyse, on a comparative basis, how various courts are exercising their increasingly demanding tasks. The various contributions, each from a different angle, provide comparative analyses of constitutional questions, fundamental to the modern European democracies. Although the book is predominantly a 39;European39; book in that it analyses two European courts and primarily some European states, attention is also paid to similar American practices and legal concepts.
