Constitutional Interpretation Style

INSTRUCTIONS

Chapter 19 - "Constitutional Interpretation Styles of US Supreme Court" addresses the importance of considering aspects of both the legal and attitudinal
models in studies on judicial decision-making. The component of the legal model addressed is constitutional interpretation style. Justice ideology was
included to account for the attitudinal model. In a one- to two-page essay, compare and contrast constitutional "interpretation style" and "ideology." Further,
discuss how these two concepts affect each other. Does judicial ideology influence interpretation style, or does judicial interpretation style influence
ideology? Justify your response with both academic sources and practical examples.
