Marbury V Madison was one of the most influential court cases in history because it gave the Supreme Court the power of Judicial Review. At the end of John Adams presidency, before Jefferson could take office, he was a lame duck, but he still had power. Adams appoints Marbury an official of Justice of the Peace, but when Jefferson starts his presidency, Marbury goes to Madison (the Secretary of State) and asks for his commision, or when he can do his job. Madison refuses, and Marbury does what any sensible person would do, he goes to the Supreme Court and asks for a Writ of Mandamus, which would force Madison to give Marbury his job. John Marshall, the Supreme Court judge in charge of the case end up not giving Marbury the Writ of Mandamus because he stated that the Judiciary Act of 1789 that declared that the federal courts could issue a Writ of Mandamus was unconstitutional. This established that the Supreme Court, under the Supremacy Clause and Article III of the US Constitution, could review legislative and executive acts and declare them unconstitutional.

What historical event does the author link to the United States initial focus on technology investment, and why do you think thi
solmaris [256]

The author states that the Soviet Union’s launch of Sputnik caused the United States to begin investing in science, technology, and innovation. Sputnik’s successful launch caused this reaction in the United States because the Cold War led Americans to fear the possibility of the Soviet Union leading the world in science and technology. Rather than give in to fear or hide from challenge, the United States stepped up and made a commitment to science, math, and innovation.
