This book is the result of a serious effort to analyze the judicial activism of the Supreme Court of India in the post 1980 era particularly. It gives a lucid analysis of the concept of judicial activism, reasons therefore, and the manifestations thereof. It particularly focuses on the constitutional role of the judiciary, scope of judicial power and evolution of judicial activism, and its contribution in certain specific areas of the Constitutional Law. It also deals with the emerging trends relating to judicial activism. This edition has been thoroughly revised, enlarged and updated with the help of a plethora of judicial decisions delivered by the Supreme Court. The nine well researched and well written chapters in this book will be immensely useful to students, law teachers, law researchers, practicing advocates and even the members of the Bench. The biggest beneficiaries will be those keen observers of judicial behavior concerned with the concept of constitutionalism and rule of law.
