James Madison and Freedom of Speech: Major Debates in the Early Republic
ISBN: 9780761828556 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 154 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this book, Juhani Rudanko sheds important new light on James Madison's contributions to the debates on freedom of speech, during the formative period of 1789 to 1801 in the United States.
