Book excerpt: Second Amendment commentary and case law are incorrect. But unfortunately, they are relied upon by today's scholars and jurists. However, this book, written in "plain English" instead of the legalese that many people find unappealing about books pertaining to legal subjects, takes the bold step of disproving these incorrect authorities on the most controversial and puzzling provision of the United States Constitution, and it meets that challenge. While other books on the Second Amendment rely largely on incorrect commentary and case law, this book uses credible and irrefutable documentary evidence to uncover the substance of the Second Amendment. By proving that Second Amendment commentary and case law are incorrect, this book will become both the preeminent treatise on the Second Amendment and a landmark book in the field of Constitutional law. And while gun control has been a highly controversial issue for a long time, the debate on gun control has been improperly bifurcated into what is good public policy and what is Constitutional. This book eliminates the Constitutional component of that debate so that it can be focused solely on what is good public policy. Other books written on the Second Amendment propose incorrect theories or attempt to reconcile its two supposed "clauses." However, this book is the best book ever written on the Second Amendment because it does what no other book has ever done. It uncovers, by means of documentary evidence instead of mere argument, the true meanings of the terms "A well regulated Militia," "the people," "keep," and "bear Arms." This book is current right up to the 2008 Supreme Court case of District of Columbia v. Heller, and the informationcontained in this book forms the foundation of what a correct determination of that case would be.

Download or read book The Parties in Court written by Robert C. Wigton and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American political parties have long existed in a gray area of constitutional law because of their uncertain status. Parties in this country are neither fully public nor fully private entities. This constitutional ambiguity has meant that political parties are considered private organizations for some purposes and public ones for others. This “public-private entity” problem has arisen in many different legal contexts over the years. However, given their case-by-case method of judicial review, courts have typically dealt with only very discrete parts of this larger problem. This work is an endeavor to describe and analyze the constitutional status of political parties in this country by synthesizing the best judicial and scholarly thinking on the subject. In the final chapter, I draw on these ideas to propose my own scheme for how political parties might be best accommodated in a democracy.

Download or read book Common Law Marriage written by Goran Lind and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-09-02 with total page 1246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extraordinary recent increase in rates of cohabitation and non-marital birth presents a major challenge to traditional family law principles, and the legal rules governing cohabitation are thus among the most hotly contested areas of family law and policy today. In many nations, courts, legislatures, and law-reform bodies are "reinventing" common law marriage, seemingly without any sense of its history, doctrinal development, or limitations. The current law surrounding common law marriage is extremely complex. Professor Göran Lind has undertaken the demanding task of writing the most well-researched text on this topic to date. Separated into three Parts, Common Law Marriage covers the origins of the doctrine, its legal aspects in modern America, and the future of cohabitation law across the globe and in the 11 American jurisdictions that currently recognize common law marriage. It provides a cultural and historical history of the subject, from Ancient Roman Law to Medieval Canon Law, and analyzes over 2,000 American cases which have utilized the doctrine. This timely book is an excellent resource for scholars, legislators, and policymakers who are interested in the complex legalities of common law marriage.

Book excerpt: A Washington Post Notable Book of the Year A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice An award-winning constitutional law scholar at the University of Chicago (who clerked for Judge Merrick B. Garland, Justice Stephen Breyer, and Justice Sandra Day O’Connor) gives us an engaging and alarming book that aims to vindicate the rights of public school students, which have so often been undermined by the Supreme Court in recent decades. Judicial decisions assessing the constitutional rights of students in the nation’s public schools have consistently generated bitter controversy. From racial segregation to unauthorized immigration, from antiwar protests to compulsory flag salutes, from economic inequality to teacher-led prayer—these are but a few of the cultural anxieties dividing American society that the Supreme Court has addressed in elementary and secondary schools. The Schoolhouse Gate gives a fresh, lucid, and provocative account of the historic legal battles waged over education and illuminates contemporary disputes that continue to fracture the nation. Justin Driver maintains that since the 1970s the Supreme Court has regularly abdicated its responsibility for protecting students’ constitutional rights and risked transforming public schools into Constitution-free zones. Students deriving lessons about citizenship from the Court’s decisions in recent decades would conclude that the following actions taken by educators pass constitutional muster: inflicting severe corporal punishment on students without any procedural protections, searching students and their possessions without probable cause in bids to uncover violations of school rules, random drug testing of students who are not suspected of wrongdoing, and suppressing student speech for the viewpoint it espouses. Taking their cue from such decisions, lower courts have upheld a wide array of dubious school actions, including degrading strip searches, repressive dress codes, draconian “zero tolerance” disciplinary policies, and severe restrictions on off-campus speech. Driver surveys this legal landscape with eloquence, highlights the gripping personal narratives behind landmark clashes, and warns that the repeated failure to honor students’ rights threatens our basic constitutional order. This magisterial book will make it impossible to view American schools—or America itself—in the same way again.

Book excerpt: How the Right is subverting the legal protections of consumers, workers, injury victims, and the environment There is an undercover war going on in America that impacts everyone"s life far more than has been reported. The Conservative movement has been systematically turning back a century"s worth of liberal gains and protections found in the common law-the areas of law that affect most of the everyday activities of ordinary people. Throughout the twentieth century, contract, property, and personal injury law evolved to take more account of social condition and the less powerful members of American society. Contracts were interpreted in light of common sense, property ownership was subjected to reasonable-use provisions, and consumers were protected against dangerous products. But all that is changing. Conservatives have a clear agenda to turn back the clock on the common law to increase the rights of big business. Some significant inroads have already protected gun manufacturers from lawsuits and hampered the government"s protection of the environment, for example; more rollbacks are on the horizon. Although this aspect of the Conservative agenda is not as visible as assaults on abortion rights and civil liberties, it may ultimately have even greater impact on our society. Jay M. Feinman"s book is an accessible, eye-opening primer, full of vivid examples and case histories. It should be an important new issue in the election debates, and in our thinking about a just American society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this bold fourth edition, Lindsay F. Wiley builds on the foundation laid by Lawrence O. Gostin to define public health law and ethics for a new generation of leaders and scholars. Their examination of the scope and limits of governmental powers and duties to protect the public's health takes on new urgency in light of the devastation caused by the 2020 coronavirus pandemic and the stark inequities it revealed. Their insistence that social justice must be prioritized as a core value of public health ethics animates their analysis of communicable disease control strategies, chronic disease prevention programs, the opioid overdose and gun violence crises, and more. They elucidate what is at stake for the public in legal debates regarding the regulatory powers of administrative agencies, erosion of local government autonomy by state legislatures, and tensions between federal and state officials over safety-net programs. They focus particularly on the role of the courts in striking down popular laws and policies, boosting religious liberty and gun rights, and eroding protections for fundamental rights to sexual and reproductive freedom and racial and gender equality. The book creates an intellectual framework for ensuring that public health interventions are evidence-based and consistent with ethical values. Its incisive analysis of challenging trade-offs between individual rights and collective needs reveals complex answers to the essential question of what fellow community members owe each other when it comes to health"--

Book excerpt: Eighteen. Twenty-one. Sixty-five. In America today, we recognize these numbers as key transitions in our lives—precise moments when our rights and opportunities change—when we become eligible to cast a vote, buy a drink, or enroll in Medicare. This volume brings together scholars of childhood, adulthood, and old age to explore how and why particular ages have come to define the rights and obligations of American citizens. Since the founding of the nation, Americans have relied on chronological age to determine matters as diverse as who can marry, work, be enslaved, drive a car, or qualify for a pension. Contributors to this volume explore what meanings people in the past ascribed to specific ages and whether or not earlier Americans believed the same things about particular ages as we do. The means by which Americans imposed chronological boundaries upon the variable process of growing up and growing old offers a paradigmatic example of how people construct cultural meaning and social hierarchy from embodied experience. Further, chronological age always intersects with other socially constructed categories such as gender, race, and sexuality. Ranging from the seventeenth century to the present, taking up a variety of distinct subcultures—from frontier children and antebellum slaves to twentieth-century Latinas—Age in America makes a powerful case that age has always been a key index of citizenship.
