Download or read book Originalism in American Law and Politics written by Johnathan O'Neill and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2005-07-12 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains how the debate over originalism emerged from the interaction of constitutional theory, U.S. Supreme Court decisions, and American political development. Refuting the contention that originalism is a recent concoction of political conservatives like Robert Bork, Johnathan O'Neill asserts that recent appeals to the origin of the Constitution in Supreme Court decisions and commentary, especially by Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas, continue an established pattern in American history. Originalism in American Law and Politics is distinguished by its historical approach to the topic. Drawing on constitutional commentary and treatises, Supreme Court and lower federal court opinions, congressional hearings, and scholarly monographs, O'Neill's work will be valuable to historians, academic lawyers, and political scientists.

Book excerpt: United States Constitutional History and Law is a text written by Albert Putney, who was an accomplished academic, a lawyer, and a lecturer at the Illinois College of Law. This title presents a detailed overview of the American constitution. United States Constitutional History and Law is a celebration of the creation of the supreme law that is the very foundation of the United States of America. Putney presents the reader with a detailed history of the establishment of the constitution as well as an analysis of the document's most notable principles. After a brief introduction, the author begins the examination in earnest. Putney commences by detailing the political and legal history of the thirteen colonies prior to the first constitutional convention. The book then details the convention and its major outcomes, and includes a lengthy discussion of the division of powers between the states and the country as a whole. The separate departments of the federal government are profiled, and the Bill of Rights is described in depth. The book concludes with a history, up until 1908, of the amendments made to the constitution. United States Constitutional History and Law is an exhaustive and exceptional history book. Putney was a brilliant academic, and his deep knowledge of the subject matter shines through on every page of this work. If you are seeking a book about the United States Constitution, this text is unmissable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Reinterpreting Southern Histories written by Craig Thompson Friend and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping historiographical collection, Reinterpreting Southern Histories updates and expands upon the iconic volumes Writing Southern History and Interpreting Southern History, both published by Louisiana State University Press. With nineteen original essays cowritten by some of the most prominent historians working in southern history today, this volume boldly explores the current state, methods, innovations, and prospects of the richly diverse and transforming field of southern history. Two scholars at different stages of their careers coauthor each essay, working collaboratively to provide broad knowledge of the most recent historiography and an expansive vision for historiographical contexts. This innovative approach provides an intellectual connection with the earlier volumes while reflecting cutting-edge scholarship in the field. Underlying each essay is the cultural turn of the 1980s and 1990s, which introduced the use of language and cultural symbols and the influence of gender studies, postcolonial studies, and memory studies. The essays also rely less on framing the South as a distinct region and more on contextualizing it within national and global conversations. Reinterpreting Southern Histories, like the two classic volumes that preceded it, serves as both a comprehensive analysis of the current historiography of the South and a reinterpretation of that history, reaching new conclusions for enduring questions and establishing the parameters of future debates.

Book excerpt: This, the concise edition of Liberty and Union, is an abridged constitutional history of the United States, designed for short single-semester courses, comprising the key topics from Volumes 1 and 2. Written in a clear and engaging narrative style, it successfully unites thorough chronological coverage with a thematic approach, offering critical analysis of core constitutional history topics, set in the political, social, and economic context that made them constitutional issues in the first place. Combining a thoughtful and balanced narrative with an authoritative stance on key issues, the authors deliberately explain the past in the light of the past, without imposing upon it the standards of later generations. Authored by two experienced professors in the field, this concise edition presents seminal topics while retaining the narrative flow of the two full original volumes. An accessible alternative to dense scholarly works, this textbook avoids unnecessary technical jargon, defines legal terms and historical personalities where appropriate, and makes explicit connections between constitutional themes and historical events. For students in a short undergraduate or postgraduate constitutional history course, or anyone with a general interest in constitutional developments, this book will be essential reading. Useful features include: Full glossary of legal terminology Recommended reading A table of cases Extracts from primary documents Companion website Useful documents provided: Declaration of Independence Articles of Confederation Constitution of the United States of America Chronological list of Supreme Court justices

Download or read book A Constitutional History of Secession written by John Remington Graham and published by Shotwell Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2022-08-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UNTIL A FEW YEARS AGO anyone who spoke of secession as a legal right could expect to be scoffed at as the advocate of a permanently outmoded idea. In recent decades, however, separatist movements have appeared across Europe and North America. Peoples are seeking to reclaim their self-government from centralized nation[1]states and secession can now be seriously discussed. John Remington Graham has brought his considerable knowledge to the question. He finds that secession is form of peaceable and lawful revolution rooted in the English Revolution of 1688 and 1689, usable today as in the past, and a living part of Anglo-American constitutional law and tradition. Clyde Wilson, an eminent scholar of the statesman John C. Calhoun, has said of this work, "Had I the power, I would require every professor of history, political science, and law in America to read Graham's work. Nowhere is there a truer and more thorough treatment of the real origins and nature of freedom and self-government. This work is essential for those who would like to recover those great blessings."
