Why the court shifted from a total incorporation doctrine to a selective incorporation doctrine in the 1960?

The shift from total incorporation to selective incorporation in the 1960s was primarily driven by the Supreme Court's desire to balance state and federal powers while ensuring individual rights. Total incorporation would have applied all protections in the Bill of Rights to the states, which was seen as overly broad. Instead, selective incorporation allowed the Court to evaluate and apply specific rights deemed fundamental to the notion of due process under the 14th Amendment. This approach provided a more nuanced framework for protecting individual liberties while respecting states' rights.
