Description

The dominance of legislatures and statutory law has put an impossible burden on the courts. Guido Calabresi thinks it is time for this country to seriously consider returning to a traditional American judicial–legislative balance in which courts enlarge the common law and decide when a rule of law has seen its day and should be revised.
