Inhalt:
In recent years, a majority of conservative justices at the US Supreme Court have either overturned or are now considering overturning previous landmark rulings on voting rights, abortion, gun control, and affirmative action. In this course, we will explore these recent decisions and deliberations in light of the Supreme Court's history and its role in the political system of the United States. We will study how previous decisions of the Supreme Court have shaped the political and constitutional development of the United States.
