Judicial review gives the Supreme Court the power to _____.

History

Wittaler [7]3 years ago

Correct answer:  A) Review acts of the government and determine if they are constitutional.

More detail:

Judicial review refers to the courts' ability to review any law to see if it violates any existing law or any statute of a state constitution or the US Constitution.  On the federal level, Marbury v. Madison (1803) is considered the landmark case for the Supreme Court asserting its authority of judicial review, to strike down a law as unconstitutional.

It was sort of a roundabout way in which the principle of judicial review was asserted by the Supreme Court in the case of Marbury v. Madison. William Marbury had been appointed Justice of the Peace for the District of Columbia by outgoing president John Adams -- one of a number of such last-minute appointments made by Adams.  When Thomas Jefferson came into office as president, he directed his Secretary of State, James Madison, not to deliver many of the commission papers for appointees such as Marbury.  Marbury petitioned the Supreme Court directly to hear his case, as a provision of the Judiciary Act of 1789 had made possible.  The Court said that particular provision of the Judiciary Act was in conflict with Article III of the Constitution, and so they could not issue a specific ruling in Marbury's case (which they believe he should have won).  Nevertheless, in making their statement about the case, the Court established the principle of judicial review.

How were the Romans able to dominate the Mediterranean world during the period of the Republic, and what were the effects of tha
mel-nik [20]

The Romans achieved so many conquests because of how they dealed with areas newly conquered. They did not colonize them; instead they expanded Roman citizenship. When a place was conquered, it became Roman. This strategy of absorption instead of colonization strenghtened their army and held the empire together.

When the Romans conquered the entire Mediterranean, calling it "Mare nostrum" (our sea), they faced the consequences of the expansion.

I) Slavery and land concentration increased immensely.

II) Retired legionaires wanted more land so more conquests had to be made.

III) Fighters in the wars couldn't cultivate their land, so they lost it to rich men. This caused an exodus from the cities.

IV) In the long term this would led to the decline of the Roman Empire and to the process of feudalization of Europe.
