Litigation as Lobbying: Reproductive Hazards and Interest Aggregation
Book
2003
Published by:
The Ohio State University Press
summary
This book is a case study that shows how interest groups use the litigation process to further their policy agendas. The case detailed here revolves around issues of reproductive health. It is a good illustration of the commonly held view among judicial scholars that the judicial process is essentially the same as the political process, that in both cases there is room for influence from a variety of sources.
