Book Synopsis The Slave Trade and the Origins of International Human Rights Law by : Jenny S. Martinez
Download or read book The Slave Trade and the Origins of International Human Rights Law written by Jenny S. Martinez and published by OUP USA. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a broad consensus among scholars that the idea of human rights was a product of the Enlightenment but that a self-conscious and broad-based human rights movement focused on international law only began after World War II. In this book, the nineteenth century's absence is conspicuous - few have considered that era seriously, much less written books on it. But as this author shows, the foundation of the movement that we know today was a product of one of the nineteenth century's central moral causes: the movement to ban the international slave trade.

Book excerpt: Donnell holds that the parties interested in maintaining slavery and in establishing protective tariffs did not address these topics directly when framing the Constitution because they could not do so without violating the principles of justice and liberty. So instead of relying on the "letter" of the Constitution, they relied on the "interpretation" of it to obfuscate the fact that they wished to enslave men and to prohibit free trade.

Book excerpt: "This work will become the defining text on progressive constitutionalism — a parallel to Thomas Picketty’s contribution but for all who care deeply about constitutional law. Beautifully written and powerfully argued, this is a masterpiece." --Lawrence Lessig, Harvard Law School, and author of Free Culture Worried about what a super conservative majority on the Supreme Court means for the future of civil liberties? From gun control to reproductive health, a conservative court will reshape the lives of all Americans for decades to come. The time to develop and defend a progressive vision of the U.S. Constitution that protects the rights of all people is now. University of California Berkeley Dean and respected legal scholar Erwin Chemerinsky expertly exposes how conservatives are using the Constitution to advance their own agenda that favors business over consumers and employees, and government power over individual rights. But exposure is not enough. Progressives have spent too much of the last forty-five years trying to preserve the legacy of the Warren Court’s most important rulings and reacting to the Republican-dominated Supreme Courts by criticizing their erosion of rights—but have not yet developed a progressive vision for the Constitution itself. Yet, if we just look to the promise of the Preamble—liberty and justice for all—and take seriously its vision, a progressive reading of the Constitution can lead us forward as we continue our fight ensuring democratic rule, effective government, justice, liberty, and equality.

Book Synopsis The American Law of Slavery, 1810-1860 by : Mark Tushnet
Download or read book The American Law of Slavery, 1810-1860 written by Mark Tushnet and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-19 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an examination of Southern slave law between 1810 and 1860, Mark Tushnet reveals a structured dichotomy between slave labor systems and bourgeois systems of production. Whereas the former rest on the total dominion of the master over the slave and necessitate a concern for the slave's humanity, the latter rest of the purchase by the capitalist of a worker's labor power only and are concerned primarily with economic interest. Focusing on a wide range of issues that include contract and accident law as well as criminal law and the law of manumission, he shows how Southern slave law had to respond to the competing pressures of humanity and interest. Beginning with a critical evaluation of slave law, the author develops the conceptual framework for his own perspective on the legal system, drawing on the works of Marx and Weber. He then examines four appellate court cases decided in three different states, from civil-law Louisiana to commonlaw North Carolina, at widely separated times, from 1818 to 1858. Professor Tushnet finds that the cases display a continuing but never wholly successful attempt at distinguish between law and sentiment as modes of regulating social interactions involving slaves. Also, the cases show that the primary method of accommodating law and sentiment was an attempt to use rigid categories to confine the law of slavery to what was thought its proper sphere. Mark Tushnet is Professor of Law at the University of Wisconsin. Originally published in 1981.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Protection to Slave Property: Speech of Hon. A. G. Brown, of Mississippi in Defence of His Proposition for Immediate Congressional Protection to Slave Property in the Territories, With the Reply of Senator Fitch; Delivered in the Senate of the United States March 6, 1860 But, Mr. President, not only does this Government refuse that sort of protection to slave property in the Territories, to which I think it entitled, but it has denied us protection everywhere. It totally ignores the very species of property which constitutes the great moneyed interest of the country. There is directly and indirectly de pendent upon the security of that property, investments of more than forty hundred millions of dollars. Destroy our worth of slaves and you destroy the value of the soil on which they work you destroy the value of all our machinery our stock becomes worth less commerce is broken up; our cities dwindle and perish; and yet, sir, this great interest - the greatest individual interest under the Government - gets no protection from the Federal head. How differ ently does it act towards others! Wherever your property goes, on the land or upon the sea, Government stretches over it the strong arm of its power and protects it. Sir, it was but yesterday that I saw the stereotyped boast that the' last night, or the night before, seventeen slaves had been spirited to Canada by the underground railroad; The colonial statistics show that thousands and thousands of slaves have been carried from the slaveholding States of this Union and secreted in Canada, and it is in vain that we complain to this Government. Suppose that the agents of the underground railroad were to boast every morning that last night they carried away seventeen head of horses from New York, one hundred head of hor'ned cattle from Illinois, and five hundred sheep from Michigan suppose the underground railroad managers were con stantly boasting that Canada was being made a receptacle for your stolen goods: what would the Senator from New York say? What would New York herself say? What would all the non-slaveholding States say? They would goto the President and demand that he discharge his duty, by notifying the British Government that, unless the stolen property was given up, non-intercourse would be declared, and if its colony persisted in receiving and concealing the stolen goods of American citizens, this Government would resent the outrage, even by the shedding of blood.

Book Synopsis A Degraded Caste of Society by : Andrew T. Fede
Download or read book A Degraded Caste of Society written by Andrew T. Fede and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2024-10 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Degraded Caste of Society traces the origins of twenty-first-century cases of interracial violence to the separate and unequal protection principles of the criminal law of enslavement in the southern United States. Andrew T. Fede explains how antebellum appellate court opinions and statutes, when read in a context that includes newspaper articles and trial court and census records, extended this doctrine to the South’s free Black people, consigning them to what South Carolina justice John Belton O’Neall called “a degraded caste of society,” in which they were “in no respect, on a perfect equality with the white man.” This written law either criminalized Black insolence or privileged private white interracial violence, which became a badge of slavery that continued to influence the law in action, contrary to the Constitution’s mandate of equal protection of the criminal law. The U.S. Supreme Court enabled this denial of equal justice, as did Congress, which did not make all private white racially motivated violence a crime until 2009, when it adopted the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act. Fede’s analysis supports that law’s constitutionality under the Thirteenth Amendment, while suggesting why—during the Jim Crow era and beyond—equal protection of the criminal law was not always realized, and why the curse of interracial violence has been a lingering badge of slavery.
