This article discusses the power of courts to enforce, review and overrule legislative stature. The authors investigate the variation in judicial powers between the US system and European judiciaries. They argue that judicial autonomy ought to relate inversely to the level of coherence in the political branches of government, relative to the level of coherence needed to overturn the court’s rulings.
