This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Origin and Scope of the American Doctrine of Constitutional Law The Revolution came, and what happened then? Simply this we cut the cord that tied us to Great Britain, and there was no longer an external sovereign. Our conception now was that the people took his place that is to say, our own home population in the several States were now their own sovereign. So far as exist ing institutions were left untouched, they were construed by trans lating the name and style of the English sovereign into that of our new ruler, ourselves, the People. After this the charters, and still more obviously the new constitutions, were not so many orders from without, backed by an organized outside government, which simply performed an ordinary function in enforcing them; they were precepts from the people themselves who were to be gov erned, addressed to each of their own number, and especially to those who were charged with the duty of conducting the govern ment. No higher power existed to support these orders by com pulsion of the ordinary sort. The sovereign himself, having written these expressions of his will, had retired into the clouds; in any regular course of events he had no organ to enforce his will, except those to whom his orders were addressed in these documents. How then should his written constitution be enforced if these agencies did not obey him, if they failed, or worked amiss?

This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Origin of the English Constitution It is hardly necessary to point out to Americans that the history of the origin of the English Constitu tion is our history as much as it is the history of living Englishmen. Our institutional past until near the close of the seventeenth century is to be found in England alone. This f act the history of the seven teenth century shows clearly enough, f or if one will stu dy the constitutional innovations attempted or advocated during the period of Puritan rule, when the constitutional life of England abandoned for a moment all connexion with the monarchy, he will see how natural it seemed to the nation to turn to a sur prising number of the political expedients which in our government seem departures from the English system. When Englishmen at home broke with their own institutional precedents, and began to make a republic, it was to things of this kind that their minds were naturally led, as if they had been trained to them.

Book Synopsis The New German Constitution (Classic Reprint) by : René Brunet
Download or read book The New German Constitution (Classic Reprint) written by René Brunet and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New German Constitution The rhythm of human affairs is such that we may reason ably expect a return to the constitutional searchings of 1912 on a higher and different plane. Those who fix their eyes not upon the written letter of our Constitution, but upon judi cial decisions, political practice, and congressional procedure are never under the delusion that our constitutional system does not change. If, as Professor Seligman long ago pointed out, economic conditions are rapidly becoming the same all over the world with similar legal results, then we may, with proper warrant, expect very soon a new and lively examina tion of constitutional principles to break in upon us. M. Brunet's book fits in with the signs of the times. No person who pretends to be intelligent about constitutional matters can neglect it. It would be difficult to imagine anything more illuminating than a comparison of the Constitution of the United States drawn up in 1787, the fundamental law of the Australian Commonwealth adopted in 1900, and the new German Reichsverfassung of 1919, which vibrates with the tramp of the proletariat. In the attempt of the Germans to combine the strength of Hamilton's government with the democratic control so vaunted by Jefferson we have an experiment that ought to stir our deepest interest. In the provisions for social, not to say socialistic, enterprise, both the Australian and the German constitutions ofi'er noteworthy contrasts to our own fundamental law. It will not escape the close observer that the Germans have not created a Supreme court, on the model of our own, endowed with power to set aside acts of the executive and legislative branches of the government. The relations established by the Germans between the federal government and the states, ingenious compromises all must admit, ought to be studied in connection with Mr. Roosevelt's New Nationalism - not as an echo of a dead past but as a prophecy of the future.

Extreme rigidity in our federal and state constitutions. Amendment is made as difficult as possible; in some states it is practically impossible. The assumption of constitution makers seems to have been that eternal wisdom was possessed by the generation entrusted with the making of the constitution, and that the results of their labors should be crystallized into perma nent, unchanging form.

Book Synopsis Constitutions and Political Theory by : Jan-Erik Lane
Download or read book Constitutions and Political Theory written by Jan-Erik Lane and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jan-Erik Lane begins by examining the origins and history of constitutionalism, the doctrine that the state must be regulated by means of a set of institutions that guarantee citizen rights and procedural accountability. He then examines the structure of the state in order to identify the essential elements that constitutional institutions regulate. Lane asks why constitutions exist, and how they matter for society. Finally he seeks out the requirements for a fair and democratic constitution by referring to three key concepts in political theory: justice, equality and the rule of law. The book also offers a comparative survey of formal constitutional arrangements in different countries, and an analysis of how constitutions develop in practice, through the implementation of constitutional and administrative law in a country's courts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Construction Construed, and Constitutions Vindicated The period is, indeed, by no means an agreeable one. It borrows new gloom from the apathy which seems to reign over so many of our sister states. The very sound of State Rights is scarcely ever heard among them; and by many of their eminent politicians, it is only heard to be mocked at. But a good citizen'will never despair of the republick. Among these good citizens, is John Taylor, of Caroline. Penetrated by the conviction, that the constitution is in danger; that the balance has seriously inclined towards the side of consolidation; he comes forward to commune with his countrymen, and to state to them frankly his ima pressions and his fears.
