Summary

In this final chapter, I trace out the implications of the deliberative partnership thesis for our understanding of judicial behavior, judicial power, and the development of legal rights. I speculate on a model of constitutional development that recognizes the appropriate role of political parties in legal development. I also offer a defense of partisan influence on constitutional interpretation as a more accurate safeguard of a community's self-governing, egalitarian commitments.
