After the Supreme Court ended the 2000 Presidential election with its decision in Bush v. Gore, many critics claimed that the justices had simply voted their political preferences. But Justice Clarence Thomas, among many others, disagreed and insisted that the Court had acted according to legal principle, stating: "I plead with you, that, whatever you do, don't try to apply the rules of the political world to this institution; they do not apply." The legitimacy of our courts rests on their capacity to give broadly acceptable answers to controversial questions. Yet Americans are divided in their beliefs about whether our courts operate on unbiased legal principle or political interest. Comparing law to the practice of common courtesy, Keith Bybee explains how our courts not only survive under these suspicions of hypocrisy, but actually depend on them. Law, like courtesy, furnishes a means of getting along. It frames disputes in collectively acceptable ways, and it is a habitual practice, drummed into the minds of citizens by popular culture and formal institutions. The rule of law, thus, is neither particularly fair nor free of paradoxical tensions, but it endures. Although pervasive public skepticism raises fears of judicial crisis and institutional collapse, such skepticism is also an expression of how our legal system ordinarily functions. 410 0$aCultural lives of law. 606 $aJudicial process$zUnited States 606 $aPolitical questions and judicial power$zUnited States 606 $aRule of law$zUnited States 615 0$aJudicial process 615 0$aPolitical questions and judicial power 615 0$aRule of law 676 $a347.73/12 700 $aBybee$b Keith J.$f1965-$0870011 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789761803321 996 $aAll judges are political-- except when they are not$93824821 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01592nam 2200445 450 001 9910796489103321 005 20230123215534.0 010 $a3-11-166790-1 024 7 $a10.1515/9783111667904 035 $a(CKB)3800000000210589 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5157322 035 $a(DE-B1597)78889 035 $a(OCoLC)987942317 035 $a(DE-B1597)9783111667904 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5157322 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11567725 035 $a(EXLCZ)993800000000210589 100 $a20180827d1906 uy 0 101 0 $ager 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aVolkssprache und Schriftsprache Im Alten Arabien /$fKarl Vollers 205 $aReprint 2017 210 1$aStrassburg :$cVerlag von Karl J.
