Book synopsis

Part of The Supreme Court's Power in American Politics Series, this title addresses the body of statutory and case law covering both the military and military conduct. Four chapters discuss the relationship between the Supreme Court and military justice, covering the Civil War era, World War II, the post-war period from 1956 to 1987, and developments since the September 11, 2001, attacks. Each chapter also includes a set of documents that shed light on these periods of U.S. history. It includes excerpts from key Supreme Court briefs and rulings which are complemented by articles from the Army Times, the Armed Forces Journal, and mass media including the New York Times and The Nation. Incisive introductions to these documents explain the evolution of constitutional law and the ways in which federal and state statutes have lessened the effectiveness of both civilian control over the military and civilian judicial oversight. About the author: Author of some half-dozen books on legal history and military justice, Jonathan Lurie has been a faculty member at Rutgers University-Newark since 1969. Currently, he serves as an academic integrity facilitator.
