Paper's abstract

Elisabeth Zoller, The United States Supreme Court Between Making and Damaging Law
This article argues that the theory of the judge as a law-making authority, formerly a product of the American school of legal realism, today no longer exists, as a matter of fact, in the case-law of the Supreme Court of the United States, and that, therefore, this theory now has become a myth.

Key Words : US Supreme Court, legal realisme
