商品簡介
Lurie (history and law, Rutgers U.) has been historian archivist for the US Court of Appeals for the Armed forces since 1987. This one-volume edition contains revised versions of two of Lurie's previous books, Arming Military Justice and Pursuing Military Justice (Princeton U. Press; 1992 and 1998, respectively). After examining the establishment of the Court, he looks at selection of members, Court operations in the past 50 years, and the degree of success and failure of the mandate exercised by the Court. The differences and tensions between civilian and military justice, civilian control of the military, and the impacts of the interplay between law and politics on the Court are also considered.
