After explaining how the Court was pressured to welcome more interest groups in the late 1980s, Brodie introduces a new theory of political status describing how the Court privileges certain groups over others. By uncovering the role of the state in encouraging and facilitating litigation, this book challenges the idea that interest group litigation in Canada is a grassroots phenomenon."--Jacket 606 $aCitizen suits (Civil procedure)$zCanada 606 $aPublic interest law$zCanada 615 0$aCitizen suits (Civil procedure) 615 0$aPublic interest law 676 $a342.71/0854 700 $aBrodie$b Ian$g(Ian Ross)$0894021 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780236103321 996 $aFriends of the court$93784797 997 $aUNINA
