On the Genesis and Nature of Judicial Power

Authors: Murray S. Y. Bessette; Morehead State University;

On the Genesis and Nature of Judicial Power

Abstract

The essential nature of legislative power is to make the laws; that of executive power is to execute those law. The difference between the two is both substantial and significant; it is the difference between the rule of arbitrary power and the rule of law. This paper will seek to trace the genesis of an independent judicial power, in both theory and practice, through an examination of sections of The Constitutions of Clarendon, The Assize of Clarendon, Hobbes’ Leviathan, Locke’s Second Treatise, Montesquieu’s Spirit of the Laws, as well as The Federalist Papers. Moreover, it will seek to establish its executive nature and to explain why it is so often (at least presently) misunderstood to be akin to the legislative power.

La naturaleza esencial del poder legislativo es hacer las leyes, la del poder ejecutivo es ejecutar las leyes. La diferencia entre los dos es a la vez sustancial y significativa; es la diferencia entre el imperio de la arbitrariedad y e imperio de la ley. Este artículo busca trazar la génesis de un poder judicial independiente, tanto en la teoría y la práctica a través de un examen de las secciones de las Constituciones de Clarendon, el tribunal judicial de Clarendon, el Leviatán de Hobbes, el Segundo Tratado de Locke, el Espíritu de las Leyes de Montesquieu así como The Federalist Papers. Además, se tratará de establecer el carácter ejecutivo del poder legislativo y de explicar por qué es malentendido a menudo este poder.
