Richard Bellamy questions the effectiveness and legitimacy of judicial review by constitutional courts, suggesting that existing democratic systems actually offer superior and sufficient methods for protecting and promoting rights. He argues that judicial review lacks popular accountability and is thus a form of arbitrary rule.
