: Legal Theory BlogBook Announcement: Citizens, Courts, and Confirmations by Gibson & Caldeira
By Lawrence Solum
Citizens, Courts, and Confirmations
Positivity Theory and the Judgments of the American People
James L. Gibson & Gregory A. Caldeira
To read the entire book description or the introduction, please visit: http://press.princeton.edu/ In
recent years the American public has witnessed several hard-fought
battles over nominees to the U.S. Supreme Court. In these heated
confirmation fights, candidates' legal and political philosophies have
been subject to intense scrutiny and debate. Citizens, Courts, and Confirmations
examines one such fight--over the nomination of Samuel Alito--to
discover how and why people formed opinions about the nominee, and to
determine how the confirmation process shaped perceptions of the
Supreme Court's legitimacy.
