does anyone have recs for recent books/articles on right-wing moves to take over state & federal courts?

i feel like @MoustacheClubUS would know a good answer to this

which is more or less summarized and simplified here https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2018/07/how-conservatives-won-the-battle-over-the-courts/564533/ …

thanks! I’ve been reading the Teles book and finding it very helpful. I’ll look at the TNR article.

also much of the pro-electing judges scholarship (as by Chris Bonneau, Melinda Hall, et al.) is implicitly about this, since it's underwritten by conservative interests who are interested in winning state judicial elections. there's a whole academic industry built on this

oh interesting. is there a counter-scholarship from the other side? The teles has been really helpful but I’m trying to get closer to the present moment
