About this title

Synopsis

This book describes and analyzes the role of the courts in educational policy making. Using the results of a detailed empirical study, they attempt to answer some of the central questions raised by both scholars and the press concerning the court's capacity to resolve social policy issues and the 'legitimacy'-in a democratic political system-of the judiciary's intervention into the public policy-making process.
