Focusing on the Supreme Court as an integral part of the policy-making process, Susan Lawrence examines how a change in who has access to the Court, and the nature of the institutions that structure that access, has affected its agenda setting and doctrinal development. In her analysis of cases sponsored by the Legal Services Program (LSP) before the Supreme Court during the 1966 through 1974 terms, she explores the effect of this agency in creating a voice for the poor in the judicial policy-making process. The Court's response to cases presented by the LSP--as exemplified in its decisions to invalidate residency requirements for welfare recipients (Shapiro v. Thompson, 1969) but uphold maximum family grants (Dandridge v. Williams, 1970)--is described as emerging from a timely combination of new litigant claims, available legal bases, and judicial values and role conceptions, all of which were shaped by the political climate of the era. Lawrence convincingly argues that litigation before the Court is a powerful method of political participation for the disadvantaged. Originally published in 1990.

Parry, Edward Abbott. The Law and the Poor. London: Smith, Elder & Co., 1914. xxi, 316 pp. Reprinted 2004 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN 1-58477-354-5. Cloth $70. * Reprint of first edition. Parry [1863-1953] was an English municipal judge for over twenty years. His book, a guide for "the man in the street," which began as a series of newspaper articles, outlines the laws concerning insolvency, debt and poverty. It is distinguished by its emphasis on cultural attitudes toward the poor, and its readability and humanity. Parry's was among the strong voices to speak in sympathy to the poor in response to the Poor Law Amendment Act which had been enacted in 1834. "Judge Parry is particularly gifted with that rare imagination which enables him to see mortal men and women where others see cases, litigants, and parties before the courts. Hence his volume is a rare document, especially useful as a corrective to the tendency to lose sight of actual living conditions in the logical pursuit of abstract legal doctrines." Cohen, Law and Social Order cited in Marke, A Catalogue of the Law Collection at New York University (1953) 810.

The central theme of this address is that judicial inaction with respect to poverty ought not to be mistaken as impartiality. While poverty has always existed, in Canada, we are confronting new circumstances which impact directly on the constitutional values courts are mandated to protect and which were not necessarily foreseen by the drafters of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms - namely unprecedented levels of homelessness and inadequate access to food. The speaker considers how judges can ensure that poor people are treated fairly by the justice system when they are dragged into it but also, and more fundamentally, how judges can ensure that poor people can participate as equals in the promise of a constitutional democracy, whereby courts might become a place poor people might actually choose to go to when other institutions fail to respect their rights, where they might receive a hearing they would otherwise be denied. The speaker explores how the Supreme Court of Canada has provided lower courts with a solid jurisprudential foundation through which the rights of poor people can be re-valued in the justice system, and through which the justice system can begin to play its proper role in considering challenges to fundamental human rights violations in Canada. However, the full nature of judicial responsibility in the area of poverty has not yet been written. It is up to judges in lower courts, who regularly deal with the direct interaction of poverty and the justice system, to apply the courts' role in a constitutional democracy more effectively to issues of poverty.
