Judicialization of Politics

Dr. C. Neal Tate of Vanderbilt University defines the
judicialization of politics as "the process by which the Constitutition
assigns the judiciary new and expanded powers and responsibilities,
give it great potential to judicialize policy processes that would
otherwise be the responsibility of the majoritarian institutions."

UP Prof. Randy David, in his e-mail, regard it as a reversal of modernity's gains,
even if it may often be a response to the failure of politics.
