Supreme Court decision-making in slavery cases.
Bridge, Dave.

Supreme Court decision-making in slavery cases. - 61 p.

Adviser: Howard Gillman.

Thesis (M.A.)--University of Southern California, 2007.

This paper looks at Supreme Court decision-making by examining cases that involved issues of slavery. After developing a population of 14 cases, I test the decisions in light of the three alternative hypotheses: attitudinalism, legalism, and regime theory. Each theory explains a different set of cases. The attitudinal model captures cases involving Mississippi laws governing slavery. The legal model explains suits in which the issue was whether a black was a slave or not. Finally, the regime account is most important in fugitive slave law.
