Abstract:

In this paper, I will argue that the “legal time” of the Supreme Court is different from what Stephen Skowronek has called the “political time” of the presidency, and that this difference has important implications for how we study the place of the Supreme Court in APD. I will use as evidence in support of this argument my findings in “Social Constructions, Supreme Court Reversals, and Path Dependence: Lochner, Plessy, Bowers, But Not Roe,” a chapter I wrote for Ronald Kahn and Ken Kersch, eds., The Supreme Court and American Political Development, a book which will be published in late 2005 or early 2006 by the University Press of Kansas.

Also the mediation role of the Supreme Court between law and politics that many contributors document suggests that the Supreme Court may be a particularly important institution in defining the nature of the process of intercurrence in American political development.
