Money in American Politics: An Encyclopedia
ISBN: 9781440851766 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Some Americans have come to the conclusion that U.S. politics is dominated by money, that politicians are frequently if not routinely "bought and paid for," and that the only entities who wield political power are America's monied "elite" or powerful special interests like "big labor" or "Wall Street." But other American citizens believe that proposals to limit the influence of money in politics run counter to the free speech principles enshrined in the Constitution. This book will explores this compelling and controversial issue, examining where money in American politics comes from,...

Evicted! Property Rights and Eminent Domain in America
ISBN: 9780313353444 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 233 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The 2005 Supreme Court decision Kelo v. City of New London, which upheld the taking of an individual's home by local government for the sake of private development, unleashed a firestorm of controversy. The backlash against eminent domain cuts across partisan, ideological, and racial lines, with 4 out of 5 Americans opposing Kelo. Critics of Kelo claim that it represents a radical departure in the law, putting every homeowner in jeopardy of dispossession by government at the service of corporate interests. But are property rights and eminent domain truly in mortal... The 2005 Supreme Court decision Kelo v.

Liberal Constitutionalism, Marriage, and Sexual Orientation: A Contemporary Case for Dis-Establishment uses constitutional theory and political philosophy to shed light on an elusive feature of American jurisprudence: the establishment of a sectarian preference in the law to the detriment of American citizens who happen to be gay or lesbian and who wish to exercise their fundamental right to marry. Reviewing aspects of liberal-democratic theory, marriage law, and pertinent analogies that deal with the right to marry, Gordon Albert Babst presents the notion of the -shadow establishment,...

Judicial Politics in Texas: Politics, Money, and Partisanship in State Courts
ISBN: 9780820467672 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 187 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In recent years, judicial elections have changed dramatically. The elections themselves have become increasingly partisan, interest group involvement in judicial races has escalated, recent court decisions have freed judicial candidates to speak more openly than ever before about their judicial ideologies, and the tenor of judicial campaigns has departed significantly from what were once low-key, sleepy affairs. This book examines the evolution of the new rough-and-tumble politics of judicial elections by focusing on Texas, a bellwether for the new judicial selection politics in America. The...

ISBN: 9780820456676 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 161 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book assesses the desirability of legalising euthanasia. From the ethical perspective, euthanasia raises many important issues including the right to life, the right to liberty, the avoidance of unnecessary pain, the appropriate allocation of medical resources, and the rights and duties of doctors. Other relevant considerations include the improving standard of palliative care and the -slippery slope- argument. The central arguments for and against euthanasia are evaluated against the background of the leading contemporary moral theories. This book seeks to cut through the rhetoric that...

The Antiquated Right: An Argument for the Repeal of the Second Amendment
ISBN: 9780820456669 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Over two hundred years ago, the United States enacted a constitutional amendment ensuring the ability of states to form militias. Although the militia has become obsolete, over 30,000 Americans die every year by gunfire. Both pro-gun and pro-control advocates put forth credible proposals for reducing gun violence, but all too often this public policy debate gets sidetracked by invocation of the Second Amendment right to bear arms, which improperly makes a constitutional issue out of a public policy matter. This book argues for the repeal of the Second Amendment because this amendment no...

ISBN: 9780820452616 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 339 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. It is not always clear what actually constitutes -sexual harassment- or how it differs from other types of discrimination based on gender. Often, what is thought of as sexual harassment by one person might be considered simply rude or immature behavior by another. While sexual harassment is a major issue in American workplaces and schools, there is no bona fide consensus as to what sexual harassment really is.
This book is designed to bring together material on an issue that is currently troubling most workplaces and schools in the United States: the problem of how to deal with a...
