Spanning the years from 1946 until 1953, the Vinson Court made the legal transition from World War II to the Korean War, and the outspoken justices Felix Frankfurter and Hugo Black helped shape its legacy. The Vinson Court summons students and legal professionals to understand the impact and tensions of Fred Vinson's term as Chief Justice from 1946–1953. Court scholar Michal R. Belknap explores McCarthyism, the Cold War, racial segregation, and capital punishment from the Supreme Court's view. These controversies shaped the most important decision on presidential powers, restrictions on political expression, and a nasty conflict over the Rosenbergs. Significant rulings are reviewed, and the 12 justices on the Vinson Court including Felix Frankfurter and Hugo Black are introduced. Clashes were common between some of the Supreme Court's strongest personalities, and these are highlighted throughout the text. The court's legacy completes this powerful study of constitutional law.

Urofsky contends that these years play a critical role in modern constitutional history, not merely as a colorful interlude between two better-known eras of Supreme Court history but also as a period that signaled a fundamental upheaval in U.S. jurisprudence - the shift in focus from the protection of private property to the protection of individual liberties.

Arguing that the Eisenhower Court has been underrated by historians, Vestal (political science, Oklahoma State U.) analyzes the principal decisions of the Eisenhower Court, focusing on a number of important civil liberties cases decided by the Supreme Court under Chief Justice Earl Warren in the 1953-1961 terms. He also examines the politics and values of the justices as revealed by their voting behavior with particular attention to those justices appointed by President Eisenhower. Includes an extensive bibliography. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.

When we think of judicial activism–the Court's role in making public policy–we often focus on individuals: the Robert Borks or Thurgood Marshalls of the times. In this book, Richard Pacelle explores the institutional judicial activism of the Supreme Court through the dramatic changes in its agenda as it has evolved from 1933 to the present. Once dominated by economic issues, the Supreme Court's agenda is now populated largely by cases involving individual rights and liberties. This shift is hardly accidental, Pacelle argues, and he offers quantitative as well as qualitative assessments of the means and motivations for change. Over 7,500 cases serve as the basis of analysis, and the narrative is amplified by informative appendixes: an explanation of the author's case taxonomy, a chronology of the Court's chief justices, a list of cases cited, and a digest of key cases. The systematic framework provided for tracing historical changes in the Supreme Court's agenda is the first of its kind and is sure to be valuable in future analyses and projections of coming change beyond the Rehnquist Court.
