Abstract

Is judicial independence, that much-vaunted ideal, an empty paired platitude lacking much in the way of cash value? My young friend Rodrigo Crenshaw presents eight doubts about this value, which is a mainstay of a type of liberal evangelizing.

Keywords: judges, judicial independence, law and society, critical race theory, critical legal studies
