Abstract

This Article provides a historical perspective on the important discussions that presently are taking place about the relationship of popular democracy to the judicial branch. The structure of the discussion is quite simple. Part I is a brief historical review of prior periods in history in which judicial independence has been called into question. Part II then relies on that history to establish four simple points that may be gleaned from history. Finally, in light of the guidance from history, Part III offers some insight into the present controversy.
