Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steven K. Green, renowned for his scholarship on the separation of church and state, charts the career of the concept and helps us understand how it has fallen into disfavor with many Americans. In 1802, President Thomas Jefferson distilled a leading idea in the early American republic and wrote of a wall of separation between church and state. That metaphor has come down from Jefferson to twenty-first-century Americans through a long history of jurisprudence, political contestation, and cultural influence. This book traces the development of the concept of separation of church and state and the Supreme Court's application of it in the law. Green finds that conservative criticisms of a separation of church and state overlook the strong historical and jurisprudential pedigree of the idea. Yet, arguing with liberal advocates of the doctrine, he notes that the idea remains fundamentally vague and thus open to loose interpretation in the courts. As such, the history of a wall of separation is more a variable index of American attitudes toward the forces of religion and state. Indeed, Green argues that the Supreme Court's use of the wall metaphor has never been essential to its rulings. The contemporary battle over the idea of a wall of separation has thus been a distraction from the real jurisprudential issues animating the contemporary courts.

And near the time of the difficulty, the true state of the case was: very little known among them, nor could it be brought before the mass of the members of Society as then controlled.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Divorce The principles of legislation which are enun ciated in this book appear to me to be clearly deducible from the authorities which have been accessible to me, and I have as far as possible allowed those authorities - many of them for the first time-to speak for themselves in the plain and simple language of our own day. This little book will, it is hoped, serve as an introduction to those who wish to study the subject in greater detail or in relation to any particular country, and it will not have been written in vain if it is the means of encouraging a spirit of greater sym pathy and tolerance towards those - especially women, who have had little or no voice in the making of the laws - who are, often through no fault of their own, made to suffer for the well-meant but often misguided laws and opi nions of our ancestors.

Download or read book Separation of Church and State written by Philip HAMBURGER and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a powerful challenge to conventional wisdom, Philip Hamburger argues that the separation of church and state has no historical foundation in the First Amendment. The detailed evidence assembled here shows that eighteenth-century Americans almost never invoked this principle. Although Thomas Jefferson and others retrospectively claimed that the First Amendment separated church and state, separation became part of American constitutional law only much later. Hamburger shows that separation became a constitutional freedom largely through fear and prejudice. Jefferson supported separation out of hostility to the Federalist clergy of New England. Nativist Protestants (ranging from nineteenth-century Know Nothings to twentieth-century members of the K.K.K.) adopted the principle of separation to restrict the role of Catholics in public life. Gradually, these Protestants were joined by theologically liberal, anti-Christian secularists, who hoped that separation would limit Christianity and all other distinct religions. Eventually, a wide range of men and women called for separation. Almost all of these Americans feared ecclesiastical authority, particularly that of the Catholic Church, and, in response to their fears, they increasingly perceived religious liberty to require a separation of church from state. American religious liberty was thus redefined and even transformed. In the process, the First Amendment was often used as an instrument of intolerance and discrimination.

Download or read book Segregation written by Carl H. Nightingale and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we think of segregation, what often comes to mind is apartheid South Africa, or the American South in the age of Jim Crow—two societies fundamentally premised on the concept of the separation of the races. But as Carl H. Nightingale shows us in this magisterial history, segregation is everywhere, deforming cities and societies worldwide. Starting with segregation’s ancient roots, and what the archaeological evidence reveals about humanity’s long-standing use of urban divisions to reinforce political and economic inequality, Nightingale then moves to the world of European colonialism. It was there, he shows, segregation based on color—and eventually on race—took hold; the British East India Company, for example, split Calcutta into “White Town” and “Black Town.” As we follow Nightingale’s story around the globe, we see that division replicated from Hong Kong to Nairobi, Baltimore to San Francisco, and more. The turn of the twentieth century saw the most aggressive segregation movements yet, as white communities almost everywhere set to rearranging whole cities along racial lines. Nightingale focuses closely on two striking examples: Johannesburg, with its state-sponsored separation, and Chicago, in which the goal of segregation was advanced by the more subtle methods of real estate markets and housing policy. For the first time ever, the majority of humans live in cities, and nearly all those cities bear the scars of segregation. This unprecedented, ambitious history lays bare our troubled past, and sets us on the path to imagining the better, more equal cities of the future.

Excerpt: ...who adhere to the old organization ' were generally well satisfied with what took place' on First-day, in regard to the treatment of Henry Clay, by the Clerk and other leading Friends. The only effect it can possibly have, will be to convince all who are not willfully blind, that their faithful testimony against Slavery, consists in profession only. If a man, a distinguished stranger of equal talents with Henry Clay, who had robbed his white neighbor by violence of half his property, or had stolen a horse from him, should have visited Richmond at the same time, and had told the Clerk he was inclined to go to his meeting, would he have taken him there in his carriage and led him about by the arm as a brother beloved, and would Friends have conducted him into one of the most conspicuous seats in the meeting-house, etc? And yet he says in effect, it would have been a great and reprehensible violation of all good manners, courtesy, good breeding, and duty not to show this respect to Henry Clay, a man who is continually robbing fifty colored persons not merely of a part, but of everything they should rightfully possess. Can any person define, consistently with a faithful testimony against Slavery, why such a character should command more respect than the petty robber? " Page 8. 'But the Clerk of the meeting, as such, did not conduct Henry Clay.'-. " It seems to us he need not to have taken the pains to deny that which no one supposed. We had no idea that he conducted him as Clerk. The object was, to show that he who had the confidence and support of the ruling party thus acted, and of course that it was 'a pretty goo index to their character, unless they had shown their disapprobation of the conduct, which...
