In this innovative book, Nancy Staudt focuses on the role of federal courts in fiscal matters during warfare and high-cost national defense emergencies. There is, she argues, a judicial power of the purse that becomes evident upon examining the budgetary effects of judicial decision making. The book provides substantial evidence that judges are willing-maybe even eager-to redirect private monies into government hands when the country is in peril, but when the judges receive convincing cues that ongoing wartime activities undermine the nation's interests, they are more likely to withhold funds from the government by deciding cases in favor of private individuals and entities who show up in court. In stark contrast with conventional legal, political, and institutional thought that privileges factors associated with individual preferences, The Judicial Power of the Purse sheds light on environmental factors in judicial decision making and will be an excellent read for students of judicial behavior in political science and law. 410 0$aChicago series on international and domestic institutions. 606 $aWar and emergency legislation$xEconomic aspects$zUnited States 606 $aJudicial power$xEconomic aspects$zUnited States 606 $aJudge-made law$xEconomic aspects$zUnited States 606 $aFiscal policy$zUnited States 610 $ajudge, trial, courtroom, court, national, defense, funds, funding, fundraising, crisis, academic, scholarly, research, law school, legal, litigation, lawyer, legislature, government, federal, fiscal, warfare, cost, judicial, emergency, budget, money, politics, political, economic, united states, usa, america, jurisprudence, foreign, policy. 615 0$aWar and emergency legislation$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aJudicial power$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aJudge-made law$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aFiscal policy 676 $a347.73/12 700 $aStaudt$b Nancy$01478303 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781545303321 996 $aThe judicial power of the purse$93693959 997 $aUNINA
