Historians of the South have generally avoided issues pertaining to the region's law and legal institutions, while American legal historians have long neglected the southern experience. Appellate judges in particular, both in and of the South, remain among the least-studied of topics. This examination of the careers of Judges Spencer Roane, William Johnson, Joseph Henry Lumpkin, Thomas Ruffin, John Hemphill, George Washington Stone, and Emory Speer helps reveal the impact of southern society and consciousness on the judicial process. During the course of the nineteenth century, southern appellate judges balanced the competing ideological pressures arising out of their broad inclusion in the American legal culture and their close connection to the southern political order. Strongly linked to the value, practices, and assumption of the American legal community, southern judges, in terms of their judicial style, their conception of the judicial role, and their substantive opinions, largely reflected national patterns of behavior. At the same time, because these judges invariably played an important role in the politics of their particular local communities and states, judicial behavior often mirrored the political order's rigid devotion to sectional orthodoxy on the issues of slavery and race. This study of the backgrounds, attitudes, and actions of seven of the South's leading appellate judges therefore shows that the southern judiciary system in most respects resembled that of the North. Only on the most sensitive political issues--slavery and race--did the South embody a unique judicial tradition. this singly distinctive feature of southern appellate judging scarred the region's reputation and ensured southern judges' subordinate position in the legal community over the next century. Thus, although many judges from the south made important contributions to the perception of southern inferiority has figured more prominently in the writing of American legal history than has the reality of the southern judiciary's accomplishments.

In this famous treatise, a Supreme Court Justice describes the conscious and unconscious processes by which a judge decides a case. He discusses the sources of information to which he appeals for guidance and analyzes the contribution that considerations of precedent, logical consistency, custom, social welfare, and standards of justice and morals have in shaping his decisions.

During the last two decades the judiciary has come to play an increasingly important political role in Latin America. Constitutional courts and supreme courts are more active in counterbalancing executive and legislative power than ever before. At the same time, the lack of effective citizenship rights has prompted ordinary people to press their claims and secure their rights through the courts. This collection of essays analyzes the diverse manifestations of the judicialization of politics in contemporary Latin America, assessing their positive and negative consequences for state-society relations, the rule of law, and democratic governance in the region. With individual chapters exploring Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico, Peru and Venezuela, it advances a comparative framework for thinking about the nature of the judicialization of politics within contemporary Latin American democracies.

A newly updated edition of “the most readable and succinct account of the origins, the development, and the philosophy of the civil law” (Houston Law Review). Designed for general readers and students of law, this is a concise history and analysis of the civil law tradition, which is dominant in most of Europe, all of Latin America, and many parts of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. The fourth edition is fully updated to include the latest developments in the field and to correct and update historical details gleaned from newly published research on Roman and medieval law. In recent years, the legal profession has changed radically, with the growing international ubiquity of large law firms operating across borders (which was previously a uniquely American phenomenon). This new edition updates the book from the post-Soviet era to ongoing current issues, including Brexit and the status of the European Union. It discusses how civil law codes have shifted in some countries to adapt to modern and changing ideologies and also includes brand-new material on legal education, which is of central importance to the legal profession today.
