In the case City of Boerne v. Flores, the Supreme Court struck down the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993. Waltman offers the first book-length analysis of the act to show how this case contributes to an intense legal debate still ongoing today: Can and should the Supreme Court be the exclusive interpreter of the Constitution?
Jerold Waltman is the R.W. Morrison Professor of Political Science at Baylor University, USA and editor of the Journal of Church and State. He is the author of seven other books, including Religious Liberty and Contemporary American Politics: The Saga of the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act of 2000 (2011).
