基本説明
New in paperback. Hardcover was published in 2010. During Franklin Roosevelt's first term, a narrow conservative majority on the U.S. Supreme Court struck down several key elements of the New Deal legislation. This book uses new evidence to make clear that understanding the fight is essential to understanding the personality and presidency of FDR - and America at a crossroads in its history.
Full Description
Beginning in 1935, the Supreme Court's conservative majority left much of FDR's agenda in ruins. The pillars of the New Deal fell in short succession. It was not just the New Deal but democracy itself that stood on trial. In February 1937, Roosevelt struck back with an audacious plan to expand the Court to fifteen justices—and to "pack" the new seats with liberals who shared his belief in a "living" Constitution.
