THE OPINIONS OF JUSTICE ANTONIN SCALIA - PAUL I...

Judicial opinions written by justices of the United States Supreme Court are readily available
yet few Americans will ever examine the full substance of a Court opinion. Students 
particularly undergraduate students with no real expertise (or interest) in the law  can find
reading opinions an overwhelming and laborious process. The opinions of Justice Scalia are a
different matter. Scalia is often sarcastic  smug  and self-assured. He does not hesitate to
take his colleagues to task when he feels they are wrong and does not mind stooping to ridicule
and personal attack when it serves his point. In short  whether a reader agrees or disagrees
with the points that Scalia seeks to make through these opinions  they are not boring. The
layperson as well as the student of government  political science  and law will find the words
of Justice Scalia well worth reading. Teachers will find these opinions useful for stimulating
class discussions at every level.
