Constitutional Goods
ISBN: 9780199274666 / Angielski / Twarda / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Constitutional Goods, Alan Brudner distills the essentials of liberal constitutionalism from the jurisprudence and practice of contemporary liberal-democratic states, and argues that the model liberal-democratic constitution is best understood as a unity of three constitutional frameworks: libertarian, egalitarian, and communitarian. Each of these has a particular conception of public reason. Brudner criticizes each of these frameworks insofar as its organizing conception claims to be fundamental, and moves forward to suggest a Hegelian conception of public reason within which each...

Minority Rights in Asia: A Comparative Legal Analysis
ISBN: 9780199296057 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Minority rights law has been an important axis for the evolution of international law itself.

Delegation of Governmental Power to Private Parties: A Comparative Perspective
ISBN: 9780199298242 / Angielski / Twarda / 265 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Through a comparative analysis of England, the European Union, and the United States, this book considers legal responses to delegation of governmental power to private parties. It is argued that although private delegation has the potential to enhance the efficency and effectiveness of governance, it should not be assumed to have this result. Moreover, private delegation creates risks to democracy, accountability, and human rights. Any legal controls must therefore respond to the challenge of enhancing the potential effectiveness of private delegation, while minimising the risks associated...

The Constitution in the Supreme Court: The Second Century, 1888-1986
ISBN: 9780226131122 / Angielski / Miękka / 682 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "The Constitution in the Supreme Court: The Second Century" traces the development of the Supreme Court from Chief Justice Fuller (1888-1910) to the retirement of Chief Justice Burger (1969-1986). Currie argues that the Court's work in its second century revolved around two issues: the constitutionality of the regulatory and spending programs adopted to ameliorate the hardships caused by the Industrial Revolution and the need to protect civil rights and liberties. Organizing the cases around the tenure of specific chief justices, Currie distinguishes among the different methods of...

The Constitution in Congress: The Federalist Period, 1789-1801, 1
ISBN: 9780226131153 / Angielski / Miękka / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the most thorough examination to date, David P. Currie analyzes from a legal perspective the work of the first six congresses and of the executive branch during the Federalist era, with a view to its significance for constitutional interpretation. He concludes that the original understanding of the Constitution was forged not so much in the courts as in the legislative and executive branches, an argument of crucial importance for scholars in constitutional law, history, and government.

"Rights of Inclusion" provides an innovative, accessible perspective on how civil rights legislation affects the lives of ordinary Americans. Based on eye-opening and deeply moving interviews with intended beneficiaries of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), David M. Engel and Frank W.

Imperfect Alternatives: Choosing Institutions in Law, Economics, and Public Policy
ISBN: 9780226450896 / Angielski / Miękka / 295 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Major approaches to law and public policy, ranging from law and economics to the fundamental rights approach to constitutional law, are based on the belief that the identification of the correct social goals or values is the key to describing or prescribing law and public policy outcomes. In this book, Neil Komesar argues that this emphasis on goal choice ignores an essential element institutional choice. Indeed, as important as determining our social goals is deciding which institution is best equipped to implement them the market, the political process, or the adjucative process....

Private Property and the Limits of American Constitutionalism: The Madisonian Framework and Its Legacy
ISBN: 9780226569710 / Angielski / Miękka / 357 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The United States Constitution was designed to secure the rights of individuals and minorities from the tyranny of the majority or was it? Jennifer Nedelsky's provocative study places this claim in an utterly new light, tracing its origins to the Framers' preoccupation with the protection of private property. She argues that this formative focus on property has shaped our institutions, our political system, and our very understanding of limited government."

A Community Built on Words: The Constitution in History and Politics
ISBN: 9780226677248 / Angielski / Miękka / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. H. Jefferson Powell offers a powerful new approach to one of the central issues in American constitutional thinking today: the problem of constitutional law's historicity, or the many ways in which constitutional arguments and outcomes are shaped both by historical circumstances and by the political goals and commitments of various actors, including judges. The presence of such influences is often considered highly problematic: if constitutional law is political and historical through and through, then what differentiates it from politics per se, and what gives it integrity and coherence?...

Women, Gays, and the Constitution: The Grounds for Feminism and Gay Rights in Culture and Law
ISBN: 9780226712079 / Angielski / Miękka / 546 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this remarkable study, David A. J. Richards combines an interpretive history of culture and law, political philosophy, and constitutional analysis to explain the background, development, and growing impact of two of the most important and challenging human rights movements of our time, feminism and gay rights.
Richards argues that both movements are extensions of rights-based dissent, rooted in antebellum abolitionist feminism that condemned both American racism and sexism. He sees the progressive role of such radical dissent as an emancipated moral voice in the American constitutional... In this remarkable study, David A. J.

The Anti-Federalist: An Abridgment of the Complete Anti-Federalist
ISBN: 9780226775654 / Angielski / Miękka / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Herbert J. Storing's Complete Anti-Federalist, hailed as "a civic event of enduring importance" (Leonard W. Levy, New York Times Book Review), indisputably established the importance of the Anti-Federalists' writings for our understanding of the Constitution. As Storing wrote in his introduction, "If the foundation of the American polity was laid by the Federalists, the Anti-Federalist reservations echo through American history; and it is in the dialogue, not merely in the Federalist victory, that the country's principles are to be discovered."

The Powers of War and Peace: The Constitution and Foreign Affairs after 9/11
ISBN: 9780226960326 / Angielski / Miękka / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the September 11 attacks on the United States, the Bush administration has come under fire for its methods of combating terrorism. Waging war against al Qaeda has proven to be a legal quagmire, with critics claiming that the administration's response in Afghanistan and Iraq is unconstitutional. The war on terror--and, in a larger sense, the administration's decision to withdraw from the ABM Treaty and the Kyoto accords--has many wondering whether the constitutional framework for making foreign affairs decisions has been discarded by the present administration.

Allen exposes the vested interests behind the U.S. slide toward conflating corporate values with public and democratic values. He argues that rather than being institutional protectors of democratic principles, the press and law perversely contribute to the destruction of public discourse in the United States today. Allen utilizes historical, philosophical, sociological, and legal sources to trace America's gradual embrace of corporate values. He argues that such values, including winning, efficiency, and profitability actually limit democratic involvement by...
