Democratization and the Judiciary: The Accountability Function of Courts in New Democracies (Democratization Studies)
By Unknown Author.
Description
This title examines the political role of courts in new democracies in Latin America and Africa, focusing on their ability to hold political power-holders accountable when they act outside their constitutionally defined powers. The book also issues a warning: there are problems inherent in the current global move towards strong constitutional government, where increasingly strong powers are placed in the hands of judges who themselves are not made accountable. - from Amzon
