Title: Constitutional process
Description: "Constitutional Process is the first analysis of how the collective nature of Supreme Court decision making affects the transformation of the justices' preferences into constitutional doctrine. Analyzing the Supreme Court from the perspective of social choice theory, Maxwell Stearns offers new insights with profound implications for understanding specific instances of doctrinal development within constitutional law that traditional analyses have proven ill equipped to explain."

"Constitutional Process will appeal to a wide range of scholars in law, economics, and political science who are interested in the dynamics of Supreme Court decision making and of judicial decision making generally. It should be of special interest to students of social choice theory and of law and economics who have not previously considered the Supreme Court or constitutional law as fertile ground for their disciplines."--Jacket.
