Trochev argues that judicial empowerment is a non-linear process with unintended consequences and that courts that depend on their reputation flourish only if an effective and capable state is there to support them. This is because judges can rely only on the authoritativeness of their judgments, unlike politicians and bureaucrats, who have the material resources necessary to respond to judicial decisions. Drawing upon systematic analysis of all decisions of the Russian Court (published and unpublished) and previously unavailable materials on their (non-)implementation, and resting on a combination of the approaches from comparative politics, law, and public administration, this book shows how and why judges attempted to reform Russia's governance and fought to ensure compliance with their judgments.Constitutional courtsRussia (Federation)HistoryConstitutional lawRussia (Federation)HistoryJudicial reviewRussia (Federation)HistoryConstitutional courtsHistory.Constitutional lawHistory.Judicial reviewHistory.347.47/01Trochev Alexei1972-1719499MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827489603321Judging Russia4117388UNINA
