The Will of the People: How Public Opinion Has Influenced the Supreme Court and Shaped the Meaning of the Constitution
ISBN: 9780374532376 / Angielski / Miękka / 614 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In recent years, the justices of the Supreme Court have ruled definitively on such issues as abortion, school prayer, and military tribunals in the war on terror. They decided one of American history's most contested presidential elections. Yet for all their power, the justices never face election, and hold their offices for life. This combination of influence and apparent unaccountability has led many to complain that there is something illegitimate--even undemocratic--about judicial authority. In The Will of the People, Barry Friedman challenges that claim by showing that...

Standards of American Legislation
ISBN: 9781584775522 / Angielski / Twarda / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book originated as a series of lectures presented at Johns Hopkins in 1915. It proposes a method to supplement the established doctrine of constitutional law, which enforces legislative norms through negation and review, by a system of positive principles that would guide the making of statutes and give more definite meaning and content to the concept of due process. Highly regarded since its original publication in 1917 and the winner of Harvard Law School's Ames Prize in 1919, it went on to become a standard work. It was recommended, to cite two examples, in Roscoe Pound's Introduction...

ISBN: 9780674047044 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the tumultuous decade before the Civil War, no issue was more divisive than the pursuit and return of fugitive slaves a practice enforced under the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. When free Blacks and their abolitionist allies intervened, prosecutions and trials inevitably followed. These cases involved high legal, political, and most of all human drama, with runaways desperate for freedom, their defenders seeking recourse to a higher law and normally fair-minded judges (even some opposed to slavery) considering the disposition of human beings as property. "Fugitive Justice" tells... During the tumultuous decade before the Civil War, no issue was more divisive than the pursuit and return of fugitive slaves a practice enforced u... |

We Must Not Be Afraid to Be Free: Stories of Free Expression in America
ISBN: 9780195175721 / Angielski / Twarda / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In a stinging dissent to a 1961 Supreme Court decision that allowed the Illinois state bar to deny admission to prospective lawyers if they refused to answer political questions, Justice Hugo Black closed with the memorable line, "We must not be afraid to be free." Black saw the First Amendment as the foundation of American freedom--the guarantor of all other Constitutional rights. Yet since free speech is by nature unruly, people fear it. The impulse to curb or limit it has been a constant danger throughout American history. In We Must Not Be Afraid to Be Free, Ron Collins and...
