He takes this argument some distance beyond where any other scholar has taken it, so far as I know, and he does so with considerable refinement. This book gives a full and strong manifestation of the style, intelligence, and learning that have earned Tushnet his eminence as a scholar of American constitutional law and comparative constitutionalism.\"\u003cb\u003e--Frank I. Michelman, Harvard Law School\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This is an important contribution to an important debate in the United States about the possibility and prospects for the courts to play a more modest role in politics and policy. Tushnet demonstrates that, by a nice twist, a more modest judicial role could lead to a more robust set of social rights. And his comparative cases show that this is not purely theoretical, but that it has worked out to some degree in other systems.\"\u003cb\u003e--Gordon Silverstein, University of California, Berkeley\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Princeton University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45088298500247,"sku":"9780691143200","price":2100.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780691143200.webp?v=1767641502","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/weak-courts-strong-rights-judicial-review-and-social-welfare-rights-in-comparative-constitutional-law-9780691143200","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
