Abstract

The Warren Court
Hirschfield, Robert S. | May 25, 1964 issue

add to cart   close window

The U.S. Supreme Court's historic decision on February 17, 1964 that Congressional districts must be substantially equal in population was only the latest manifestation of the active governmental role which the judicial branch has played during the decade of Earl Warren's Chief Justiceship. In fact, no Court has assumed a more evident policy-making function than the Warren Court. And none has been more vehemently attacked from so many quarters for involving itself in so wide a range of controversial issues.
