Beschreibungen/Notizen
Many of the Supreme Court's most tragic failures to protect constitutional rights--cases like Plessy v. Ferguson, Buck v. Bell, and Korematsu v. United States--share a common approach: an almost insuperable judicial deference to the elected branches of government. In the modern era, this approach is often called "Thayerism, " after James Bradley Thayer, a nineteenth-century proponent of the notion that courts should not invalidate actions of the legislature as unconstitutional unless they were clearly irrational. Versions of Thayerism have been around for centuries, predating Thayer himself.
