The Supreme Court and the Idea of Progress
ISBN: 9780300022391 / Angielski / Miękka / 1978 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Timeless questions about the role of the Supreme Court in the American political and legal system are raised in the late Alexander Bickel's characteristically astute analysis of the work of the Warren Court.
