Misreading Law, Misreading Democracy
ISBN: 9780674971417 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

It may even threaten the continued functioning of American democracy, as contempt for the legislature becomes entrenched in legal education and judicial opinions. Misreading Law, Misreading Democracy turns a spotlight on lawyers' and judges' pervasive ignorance about how Congress makes...

All those studying or simply interested in American politics must...
