The Opinion for the Court in Baker v. Carr
Rousseau -- Totalitarian or Liberal
Understanding the Constitution
Academic Freedom as a Civil Right
OTH civil rights and academic freedom are currently much in the public eye. They have been put there by various persons calling themselves liberals, but these persons have not always supplied the public with clear-cut definitions of what they mean by these terms. What follows, therefore, is more concerned with uncovering the real differences in the points of view being expressed under the same labels than with praising or blaming any of them. Sta…
American Constitutional Decisions
The Theory of the State as a Sovereign Juristic Person
The casual student of Western political history encounters sovereignty in a number of guises. In the stage of absolute monarchy, it was a personal endowment of princes; in the stage of democracy, it seems to be a collective endowment of the "nation" or the "people." In the latter period, moreover, a definition of law as the command of a sovereign becomes increasingly popular.These various contexts for sovereignty will already have suggested the p…
Regulation in a Federal System
Presidential Influence on Independent Agencies
likely to be unbiased in their judgments. Some Presidents have, to be sure, written quite frankly of their official problems after they left office. Cleveland, especially, did this,' but unfortunately, the reminiscences of Presidents who served as long ago as Cleveland are not of great usefulness today. The presidency is in the process of radical change as a result of the much greater administrative burdens assumed by government as a whole. We ca…
Erie v. Tompkins and the Relationship Between Federal and State Courts
Erie v. Tompkins evidences decentralizing trends in our federal system in two different ways—one fairly obvious and relatively orthodox; the other neither obvious nor orthodox, but probably the more significant. The first aspect may be touched upon very briefly and the ramifications of the second explored more fully. The obvious side of Erie v. Tompkins lies in its rejection of a common law of the United States available for application by the fe…
Government,” “Law,” and the Separation of Powers
The continued growth of administrative agencies exercising legislative and judicial (or, if one prefers, “quasi-legislative” and “quasi-judicial”) powers furnishes a constant inducement to reevaluate the separation of powers theory. In a general way, the theory is admittedly hostile to this development as involving an inordinate concentration of power in the executive. Accordingly, we are presented with the problem of whether governmental practic…
Some Recent Proposals in the Sphere of Administrative Justice
Among the problems touched upon by the President's Committee on Administrative Management is that of the role of administrative discretion in the governmental process. Both Professor Hart and Professor Cushman have contributed to the statement of, and have suggested solutions for, this problem.1 Professor Hart is concerned with the exercise of a rule-making discretion at the administrative level, and has ably defended the exercise of this type of…
The “Merit System” Again
Of the various proposals embodied in the recently published Report of the President's Committee on Administrative Management , that calling for extension of the merit system has received most publicity. This publicity has been generally favorable, and, in the opinion of the present writer, undiscriminating. Everyone agrees that appointments to the public service should be based upon merit of some kind. The pertinent questions are: First, should t…
"Mr. Justice Black and "Senatorial Courtesy
On August 12, President Roosevelt nominated Senator Hugo L. Black of Alabama to be an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. On receipt of the message, Senator Ashurst moved for its immediate consideration on the ground that "whenever the Executive honors this body by nominating a member thereof, that nomination is confirmed without reference to a committee, for the obvious reason that no amount of investigation or consideration by…
The Rôle of the Senate in the Confirmation of Judicial Nominations
The power of the Senate to advise and consent to presidential nominations of judicial officers has recently been subjected to sharp criticism. In the main, the Senate is charged with misfeasance rather than nonfeasance in the discharge of this function. In other words, proposals to deprive the Senate of this power are not, like proposals to abolish the electoral college, based on alleged failure of the agency to function independently, but rather…
