Making the Supreme Court

"Making the Supreme Court" by Charles M. Cameron and Jonathan P. Kastellec examines how the process of nominating and confirming Supreme Court justices has evolved from a relatively unpublicized event into a highly politicized and ideologically driven practice. The authors explore the rise of organized groups and political actors that now influence not only judicial appointments but also the broader functioning of the Court, leading to increased polarization and ideological alignment within the judiciary.
