ISBN: 9780801439575 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book describes a century of tremendous legal change, of inspiring legal developments, and profound failures. The twentieth century took the United States from the Progressive Era's optimism about law and social engineering to current concerns about a hyperlegalistic society, from philosophical idealism to the implementation of democracy, the rule of law, and the idea of human rights throughout the world. At the same time, law maintained its status as the key language of governance in the United States, the most "legal" of all countries, which has succeeded in making its version of the...

Legal Responses to Religious Practices in the United States: Accomodation and Its Limits
ISBN: 9781107692442 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. There is an enormous scholarly literature on law's treatment of religion. Most scholars now recognize that although the U.S. Supreme Court has not offered a consistent interpretation of what non-establishment or religious freedom means, as a general matter it can be said that the First Amendment requires that government not give preference to one religion over another or, although this is more controversial, to religion over non-belief. But these rules raise questions that will be addressed in Legal Responses to Religious Practices in the United States: Namely, what practices constitute a...

Speech and Silence in American Law
ISBN: 9781107627031 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Rather than abstract philosophical discussion or yet another analysis of legal doctrine, Speech and Silence in American Law seeks to situate speech and silence, locating them in particular circumstances and contexts and asking how context matters in facilitating speech or demanding silence. To understand speech and silence we have to inquire into their social life and examine the occasions and practices that call them forth and that give them meaning. Among the questions addressed in this book are: who is authorized to speak? And what are the conditions that should be attached to the speaking...

States of Violence: War, Capital Punishment, and Letting Die
ISBN: 9780521876278 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The book brings together scholarship on three different forms of state violence, examining each for what it can tell us about the conditions under which states use violence and the significance of violence to our understanding of states. The contributors to this book demonstrate that states of violence thus have a history and sociology. Yet wherever the state acts violently, the legitimacy of its acts must be engaged with the real facts of war, capital punishment, and the ugly realities of death. This book calls into question the legitimacy of state uses of violence and mounts a sustained...

Mercy on Trial: What It Means to Stop an Execution
ISBN: 9780691133997 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. On January 11, 2003, Illinois Governor George Ryan--a Republican on record as saying that "some crimes are so horrendous . . . that society has a right to demand the ultimate penalty"--commuted the capital sentences of all 167 prisoners on his state's death row. Critics demonized Ryan. For opponents of capital punishment, however, Ryan became an instant hero whose decision was seen as a signal moment in the "new abolitionist" politics to end killing by the state. In this compelling and timely work, Austin Sarat provides the first book-length work on executive clemency. He turns...
