Supermajority Voting in Constitutional Courts
Supermajority Voting in Constitutional Courts
The Problem of Majority Rule for Democracy and Legislation
Contenu
This book questions the wide use of the majority voting rule in many constitutional courts to declare statutes unconstitutional, and argues that supermajority voting rules should be used instead. To declare statutes unconstitutional, it is argued that more than 50% of the judges present plus one judge present should be required.
