- W2493149766 abstract "The aim of this essay is to challenge the assumption of a basic unity of vision and purpose at the roots of Anglo-American jurisprudence through a study of the role of juries and judgment in revolutions. Through a comparative look at the relationship between English and American conceptions of law and judgment in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the conclusion can be reached that British and American jurisprudence are separated not only historically by differing court practices which commentators have frequently observed, but correlatively by essentially different theoretical conceptions of sovereignty, the nature of law, and the extent of ordinary citizens’ power to judge the legitimacy of law. This last factor has been far less frequently observed, if not implicitly denied, by legal commentators. From a theoretical perspective, this comparative analysis helps to explain why the question of the scope and limits of the judicial function in a democratic state is the overarching question of American jurisprudence, whereas in English jurisprudence it remains a question of little significance.1 At the same time, this study aims to contribute to the contemporary debate among legal and philosophical analysts of the American judicial system, by adding to these typically limited and abstract discussions of competing theories of law and adjudication a theoretical and historically informed discussion of the evolution of judicial institutions whose nature these theories are intended to elucidate.2 The aim is to reconstruct an intellectual and historical problematic that provoked both significant constitutional debate and innovative legal and jurisprudential responses in eighteenth-century American jurisprudence. That problematic is one of determining the proper locus of judgment about the content and ‘constitutionality’ of law." @default.
