This study concludes that the Court generally harmonized the demands of society with the Constitution, a process that resulted in modernizing the law to make it serviceable in the twentieth century. Based on consideration of all the cases decided in the era, Semonche explains how the Court operated and how it was inevitably drawn into the task of making substantial policy choices.
