Maps the roles in governance that courts now undertake. Offering empirically rich accounts of dramatic judicial actions in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, this book explores the political conditions and judicial strategies that have fostered those assertions of power, and evaluates when and how courts' assertions of new roles have been politically consequential.
