Governing with Judges: Constitutional Politics in Europe

This is the first comparative study written by a social scientist on the topic of European constitutional courts and their role in protecting human rights and defending new democratic institutions. Focusing on France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the European Union, the author traces the
enormous impact of these courts on both legislative and judicial processes and outcomes, and explains why this impact continues to expand.
