Principle of the american constitutional system, History

Assignment Help:

According to Hobson in The Great Chief Justice, Marshall "exercised judicial review with a combination of boldness and restraint, employing it sparingly but often enough to make it a regular and continuously operating principle of the American constitutional system."

In a well organized essay, examine the meaning of Hobson's statement. Use specific examples drawn from the book. As you prepare your response, consider the following questions: What is judicial review? How did Marshall use it with "boldness and restraint"? What were Marshall's beliefs about the role of the judiciary? How might these beliefs have contributed to the "restraint" to which Hobson refers? Be specific and draw on at least four (4) of the cases discussed in the book for support.
