A title that challenges the "myth of the sacred" - the idea that certain aspects of the constitutional process - judicial political behaviour, interest group politics, and centralization of power - are untouchable politically.A critical look at the interaction of constitutional litigation and politics in Canada following the entrenchment of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms in 1982.
"A refreshing and strikingly useful departure from the conventional wisdom on the Charter and the Supreme Court." Richard Kay, University of Connecticut, School of Law
