Robert Walmsley University Professor, Emeritus, Harvard University. This comment was prepared for a Conference on “Judicial Review B Law and Politics,” organized by the Cegla Center for Interdisciplinary Research of the Law, June 4-5, 2017, at the Tel Aviv University Faculty of Law, to mark the publication of Professor Daniel Friedmann’s The Purse and the Sword  in its English language version. My thanks to the Cegla Center for providing the opportunity and incentive for this reflection, and to Professor Friedmann, other conference participants, and Professor Aeyal Gross for cogent comments and suggestions.
