Edited by [Ilya Shapiro](https://www.cato.org/people/ilya-shapiro) 

In this annual review from the Cato Institute, Ilya Shapiro and leading legal scholars analyze the 2010–2011 Supreme Court term, specifically the most important and far-reaching cases of the year, plus cases coming up. Now in its tenth edition, the *Review* is the first scholarly journal to appear after the term’s end and the only one grounded in the nation’s first principles, liberty, and limited government.
