What is The shifting scales of justice : the Supreme Court in neo-liberal India about?

The Supreme Court has in the past two decades sought to regulate the use of India's forests and define their use, has determined the fuel used by urban transport vehicles, taken over appointments to the higher judiciary, and has even claimed the power to declare constitutional amendments invalid. How did the Supreme Court come to consider itself competent to virtually take over the administration of such a diverse set of areas? This is the question the essays in this volume address by examining the links between the judiciary and politics of the country.
