This study was first published as part of the influential Judicial Administration series published under the auspices of the National Conference of Judicial Councils. Originally published: New York: New York University Press, 1947. xxxi, 614 pp. "Lest its title lead to any misunderstanding as to the nature of this work, it should be observed that this volume is not a text book or a treatise on criminal procedure. It is a survey and a critique of the existing criminal procedure in England and the United States from an operative or practical standpoint, with an analysis of its desirable features and a scrutiny of its defects. The book is obviously a product of exhaustive research. Its material is exceedingly well classified and organized, and it gives the reader a clear understanding of the manner in which criminal justice is administered." -- ALEXANDER HOLTZOFF, 16 George Washington Law Review 155 1947-1948 "[L]awyers who practice in criminal courts and those who are interested in the improvement of a very vital part of the administration of justice will find this volume both interesting and instructive. Professor Orfield has presented us with a fine piece of constructive scholarship which must be considered in the light of his purpose and method, which consists of tracing the history of the subject, stating the law briefly and offering sound standards of reform." --LLOYD P. STRYKER, Columbia Law Review 1267 1948 LESTER BERNHARDT ORFIELD [1904-1989] was a professor at the University of Nebraska Law School from 1929-1947, Temple University from 1947- 1952 and Indiana University's Indianapolis Law School from 1952 until his retirement in 1968. His books include the six-volume set Criminal Procedure Under the Federal Rules (1966-1967), Criminal Appeals in America (1939), The Amending of the Federal Constitution (1942), The Growth of Scandinavian Law (1953) and Cases on International Law (second edition 1965).
Social scientists have convincingly documented soaring levels of political, legal, economic, and social inequality in the United States. Missing from this picture of rampant inequality, however, is any attention to the significant role of state law and courts in establishing policies that either ameliorate or exacerbate inequality. In Judging Inequality, political scientists James L. Gibson and Michael J. Nelson demonstrate the influential role of the fifty state supreme courts in shaping the widespread inequalities that define America today, focusing on court-made public policy on issues ranging from educational equity and adequacy to LGBT rights to access to justice to worker’s rights. Drawing on an analysis of an original database of nearly 6,000 decisions made by over 900 judges on 50 state supreme courts over a quarter century, Judging Inequality documents two ways that state high courts have crafted policies relevant to inequality: through substantive policy decisions that fail to advance equality and by rulings favoring more privileged litigants (typically known as “upperdogs”). The authors discover that whether court-sanctioned policies lead to greater or lesser inequality depends on the ideologies of the justices serving on these high benches, the policy preferences of their constituents (the people of their state), and the institutional structures that determine who becomes a judge as well as who decides whether those individuals remain in office. Gibson and Nelson decisively reject the conventional theory that state supreme courts tend to protect underdog litigants from the wrath of majorities. Instead, the authors demonstrate that the ideological compositions of state supreme courts most often mirror the dominant political coalition in their state at a given point in time. As a result, state supreme courts are unlikely to stand as an independent force against the rise of inequality in the United States, instead making decisions compatible with the preferences of political elites already in power. At least at the state high court level, the myth of judicial independence truly is a myth. Judging Inequality offers a comprehensive examination of the powerful role that state supreme courts play in shaping public policies pertinent to inequality. This volume is a landmark contribution to scholarly work on the intersection of American jurisprudence and inequality, one that essentially rewrites the “conventional wisdom” on the role of courts in America’s democracy.

In the early 1970s, the federal government began recognizing self-determination for American Indian nations. As sovereign entities, Indian nations have been able to establish policies concerning health care, education, religious freedom, law enforcement, gaming, and taxation. David E. Wilkins and K. Tsianina Lomawaima discuss how the political rights and sovereign status of Indian nations have variously been respected, ignored, terminated, and unilaterally modified by federal lawmakers as a result of the ambivalent political and legal status of tribes under western law.
