First Published in 2015. This series on American Political Institutions and Public Policy intends to examine contemporary U.S. political developments and to discern their impact on issues of public policy. Cornell W. Clayton’s The Politics of Justice: The Attorney General and the Making o f Legal Policy is the second publication in the series. It is a fascinating study of politics and governance: how one government affects the other and how both affect public policy. Surveying the historical evolution of the office of the Attorney General, Clayton sees significant recent changes in the role, position, and influence of the person who holds that office.
