In this narrative history and contextual analysis of the Thirteenth Amendment, slavery and freedom take center stage. Alexander Tsesis demonstrates how entrenched slavery was in pre-Civil War America, how central it was to the political events that resulted in the Civil War, and how it was the driving force that led to the adoption of an amendment that ultimately provided a substantive assurance of freedom for all American citizens.

In these original essays, America's leading historians and legal scholars reassess the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment and its relevance to issues of liberty, justice, and equality.

Constitutional Ethos: Liberal Equality for the Common Good
ISBN: 9780199359844 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Judges, courts, and scholars in the United States agree that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land, but there is much disagreement about its meaning. So what seems to be incontestable truth is riddled with disagreements about every day questions of decision making on matter such as whether people are entitled to government created programs, what rights are fundamental, the criteria for voting, the three branches of governments' several responsibilities, and even who should have the final say in defining the Constitution's meaning.

ISBN: 9780814782729 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Destructive Messages argues that hate speech is dangerous not only when it poses an immediate threat of harm. It is also dangerous when it is systematically developed over time, becoming part of a culturally acceptable dialogue which can foster the persecution of minorities. Tsesis traces a causal link between racist and biased rhetoric and injustices like genocide and slavery. He shows that hate speech and propaganda, when left unregulated, can weave animosity into the social fabric to such a great extent that it can cultivate an environment supportive of the commission of...

ISBN: 9780199325269 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 410 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

In this sweeping synthesis of...
