This research paper: A 10 page paper that begins by defining the term 'judicial review.' The writer then discusses the governments of ancient Greece and Rome and how parts of their systems carried over to later times. The Age of Enlightenment is discussed relative to the political innovations brought about through the writings of Locke, e.g., the social contract theory, and Montesquieu, who proposed three branches of government. The founding fathers of the U.S. were highly influenced by these writers and that influence can be found in the Constitution and the division of the government into three branches. The writer reports the Marbury v Madison case where judicial review was used by Chief Justice Marsahll to declare an act of Congress unconstitutional. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
