Scott
Douglas Gerber. A distinct judicial power : the origins of an independent
judiciary, 1606-1787. Oxford University Press, c2011. KF8775.G47
2011 This book provides the first comprehensive critical
analysis of the origins of judicial independence in the United States. It examines
the political theory of an independent judiciary, chronicles how each of the
original thirteen states and their colonial antecedents treated their
respective judiciaries, and explores the influence the colonial and early
state experiences had on the federal model that followed and on the nature of
the regime itself. |

Kayoko
Takeda. Interpreting the Tokyo War Crimes Trial : a sociopolitical
analysis. University of Ottawa Press, c2010. KZ1181.T348
2010 In order to ensure its absolute authority, the Tokyo War Crimes Tribunal (1946–1948) adopted a three-tier structure for its interpreting: Japanese nationals interpreted the proceedings, second-generation Japanese-Americans monitored the interpreting, and Caucasian U.S. military officers arbitrated the disputes. This original case study of the trial illuminates how complex issues such as trust, power, control and race affect interpreting at international tribunals in times of conflict. |
