Judicial Review: Process, Powers, and Problems (Essays in Honour of Upendra Baxi)
Book information
Description
In India, judicial review is not a static phenomenon. It has ensured that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and in situations when a law impinges on the rights and the liberties of citizens, it can be pruned or made void. This is a collection of scholarly essays demonstrating the different facets of judicial review based on the vast area of comparative constitutional law. Importantly, it honours the body of work of Upendra Baxi, legal scholar and author, whose contributions have shaped our understanding of legal jurisprudence and expanded the scope of social transformation in India. This volume recognizes his role as an Indian jurist. Various constitutional law experts come together to reflect on his expositions on the role of the apex court, judicial activism, accountability of judiciary, laws on surrogacy and adultery and so on. 01.0_pp_i_iv_Frontmatter 02.0_pp_v_vi_Contents 03.0_pp_vii_xxii_Foreword 04.0_pp_xxiii_xxxii_Editors_Note 05.0_pp_1_12_Introduction 06.0_pp_13_26_The_Inadequacy_of_Judicial_Enforcement_of_Constitutional_Rights_Provisions_to_Rectify_Economic_Inequ 07.0_pp_27_45_The_Interplay_of_Law_and_Politics_in_India 08.0_pp_46_59_Beating_the_Backlog_Reforms_in_Administration_of_Justice_in_India 09.0_pp_60_78_Judicial_Review_Perspectives_and_Reflections_for_the_Twenty-First_Century 10.0_pp_79_106_When_Creeping_Jurisdiction_Goes_Awry_The_Social_Action_Litigation_to_Ban_Surrogacy 11.0_pp_107_126_Judicial_Review_and_the_Democratic_Judge 12.0_pp_127_144_Judicial_Review_A_Tool_to_Shape_Constitutional_Jurisprudence 13.0_pp_145_162_The_Baxian_Bioscope_on_Indian_Judicial_Process 14.0_pp_163_187_Judicial_Activism_Courts_and_Constitutional_Revolutions_The_Israeli_Case 15.0_pp_188_201_Democracy_Constitution_and_Judicial_Review_A_Critique 16.0_pp_202_224_A_Minor_Jurisprudence_of_Pathos_Upendra_Baxi_as_Teacher_and_Writer 17.0_pp_225_235_The_Need_for_Reinventing_the_Supreme_Court_as_a_Constitutional_Court 18.0_pp_236_251_Appointment_of_Distinguished_Jurists_as_Judges_in_the_Supreme_Court_of_India_A_Critical_Analysis 19.0_pp_252_276_Judicial_Dissent_and_Judicial_Review_A_Functional_Analysis 20.0_pp_277_292_The_Power_of_Judicial_Review_Judicial_Chutzpah_or_Judicial_Desideratum 21.0_pp_293_314_Judicial_Review_of_Legislations_by_Tribunals_in_India_Law_Problems_and_Perspectives 22.0_pp_315_340_Criminalization_of_Membership_of_Terrorist_Organizations_in_India_and_the_United_States_of_America_H 23.0_pp_341_364_Article_142_of_the_Indian_Constitution_On_the_Thin_Line_between_Judicial_Activism_and_Restraint 24.0_pp_365_383_Sketching_the_Limits_of_Article_142_of_the_Constitution_of_India_A_Constitutional_Necessity 25.0_pp_384_410_Constitutional_Morality_and_Judges_of_the_Supreme_Court 26.0_pp_411_412_About_the_Contributors 27.0_pp_413_430_Index
