Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Constitutional History of the American People 1776-1850, Vol. 2 of 2 Just as the half-century was closing, the people of Kentucky made a new constitution.

The difference, in many respects the most important, between the democracy in a Northern and that in a Southern State was illustrated in the record the delegates gave of their places of nativity.

This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Constitutional History of the American People 1776-1850, Vol. 1 of 2 This work contains the evidence of changes and, it is believed, of progress - in the ideas and opinions which the American people have held respecting the principles, the organization, and the administration of their civil institutions. It is a record of the evolution of government in this country since the Revolution, and it rests upon authorities hitherto almost entirely disregarded. Constitutional history is the history of a constitu ency, which, consciously or unconsciously, is ever striving to promote its own welfare. A constitu tional history deals primarily with persons, not with documents. Laws and constitutions, written or unwritten, are the evidence of the efforts of a constituency to secure its ends. The develop ment of constitutional government consists, essen tially, in the definite limitation of authority, in order to accomplish purposes either implied or specified. These purposes are constant demands upon the constituency, but the means adjudged reasonable or necessary for securing them are as constantly changing. The process is from things to persons; it is progressive because it is dynamic. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book We the People written by Bruce Ackerman and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2000-09-15 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Constitutional change, seemingly so orderly, formal, and refined, has in fact been a revolutionary process from the first, as Bruce Ackerman makes clear in We the People: Transformations. The Founding Fathers, hardly the genteel conservatives of myth, set America on a remarkable course of revolutionary disruption and constitutional creativity that endures to this day. After the bloody sacrifices of the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln and the Republican Party revolutionized the traditional system of constitutional amendment as they put principles of liberty and equality into higher law. Another wrenching transformation occurred during the Great Depression, when Franklin Roosevelt and his New Dealers vindicated a new vision of activist government against an assault by the Supreme Court. These are the crucial episodes in American constitutional history that Ackerman takes up in this second volume of a trilogy hailed as "one of the most important contributions to American constitutional thought in the last half-century" (Cass Sunstein, New Republic). In each case he shows how the American people--whether led by the Founding Federalists or the Lincoln Republicans or the Roosevelt Democrats--have confronted the Constitution in its moments of great crisis with dramatic acts of upheaval, always in the name of popular sovereignty. A thoroughly new way of understanding constitutional development, We the People: Transformations reveals how America's "dualist democracy" provides for these populist upheavals that amend the Constitution, often without formalities. The book also sets contemporary events, such as the Reagan Revolution and Roe v. Wade, in deeper constitutional perspective. In this context Ackerman exposes basic constitutional problems inherited from the New Deal Revolution and exacerbated by the Reagan Revolution, then considers the fundamental reforms that might resolve them. A bold challenge to formalist and fundamentalist views, this volume demonstrates that ongoing struggle over America's national identity, rather than consensus, marks its constitutional history.
Download or read book Liberty and Union written by Edgar J. McManus and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This, the second of two volumes of Liberty and Union, is a comprehensive constitutional history of the United States from the Progressive Era of the early twentieth century to the most recent decisions of the Supreme Court on contemporary constitutional issues. 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 textbook has been thoughtfully constructed to offer an accessible alternative to dense scholarly works – avoiding unnecessary technical jargon, defining legal terms and historical personalities where appropriate, and making explicit connections between constitutional themes and historical events. For students in an 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 Short Constitutional History of the United States written by Francis Newton Thorpe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short Constitutional History of the United States The basis of this book is the material consulted in the preparation of the author's larger works, - "A Constitutional History of the American People, 1776- 1850," and "The Constitutional History of the United States, 1765-1895," - the former a narrative of the civil development of the states; the latter, of the federal union. The present volume narrates the constitutional history both of the Union and of the states, showing the common basis of American local and general government. In a book of small compass, adapted to those who desire the essentials of our civil development, it has seemed sufficient if there were related, (1) the origin of our civil system; (2) the principles on which it is founded; (3) the adaptation of the plan of government to public needs, by amendment and construction; and, (4) the interpretation of the principles of the government by the supreme tribunal, - the courts. The chapters on the state constitutions treat of a subject too much neglected. A study of the subject quickly reveals its importance.
