Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Legislative Methods in the Period: Before 1825 It is the purpose of this work to trace the growth of the committee systems in the lawmaking bodies of the colonies and states from about 1750 to 1790, and in the federal House of Representatives from the beginning to 1825. During these years the committee form of organ ization was so firmly established that it has become the distinguishing feature of the American legislature. In view of this fact it seemed to be worth while to put in accessible form the more important steps in that early development. Matters of procedure are touched upon only in so far as they throw light on the main theme. In the processes of legislation it is difficult to separate completely the operations of the regular committees from the activities of the party caucus, and the following chapters discuss both types of organization, the formal, provided for by the rules, and the informal, supplied by the political party. An attempt is made to Show how the colonial legislatures were directed by party leaders, how the caucus and the executive influenced the work of the federal House, and also how certain arrangements made primarily to facilitate legislation have afiected some of the larger aspects of constitutional history. This study was undertaken 'at the suggestion of Professor Allen Johnson, of Yale University, and the material in Chapters I to VII, inclusive, with the excep tion of a part of Chapter II, was worked out in the form of a doctoral dissertation under his direction in 1913. The writer is very glad to acknowledge his indebtedness to him for helpful advice and criticism at that time. Those chapters have subsequently been largely rewritten.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methods of Legislation: A Lecture Delivered Before the University of London, October 25, 1911 But the task of survey and comparison is materially facilitated by two things. The first is, that there is an agreement among all civilized nations as to the general prin ciples on which legislative procedure should be founded. A modern law is not brought. Down from Sinai, or imposed by the will of an irresponsible despot. Every important law must, before it takes its final shape, be submitted to the scrutiny and criticism of, and be liable to amendment and rejection by, a popular assembly elected for that pur pose. The extent to which this process of scrutiny, criticism and amendment is applied, and the methods by which it is applied, differ according to the nature of the subject-matter, and the procedure, habits and idiosyncrasies of the legislature.

Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller • Notable Book of the Year • Editors' Choice Selection One of Bill Gates’ “Amazing Books” of the Year One of Publishers Weekly’s 10 Best Books of the Year Longlisted for the National Book Award for Nonfiction An NPR Best Book of the Year Winner of the Hillman Prize for Nonfiction Gold Winner • California Book Award (Nonfiction) Finalist • Los Angeles Times Book Prize (History) Finalist • Brooklyn Public Library Literary Prize This “powerful and disturbing history” exposes how American governments deliberately imposed racial segregation on metropolitan areas nationwide (New York Times Book Review). Widely heralded as a “masterful” (Washington Post) and “essential” (Slate) history of the modern American metropolis, Richard Rothstein’s The Color of Law offers “the most forceful argument ever published on how federal, state, and local governments gave rise to and reinforced neighborhood segregation” (William Julius Wilson). Exploding the myth of de facto segregation arising from private prejudice or the unintended consequences of economic forces, Rothstein describes how the American government systematically imposed residential segregation: with undisguised racial zoning; public housing that purposefully segregated previously mixed communities; subsidies for builders to create whites-only suburbs; tax exemptions for institutions that enforced segregation; and support for violent resistance to African Americans in white neighborhoods. A groundbreaking, “virtually indispensable” study that has already transformed our understanding of twentieth-century urban history (Chicago Daily Observer), The Color of Law forces us to face the obligation to remedy our unconstitutional past.

Book excerpt: How should students begin their legal education? Professor Peter Strauss's innovative materials build on a Columbia Law School commitment reaching back to Karl Llewellyn's Bramble Bush -- that legal education should start with orientation to the materials lawyers use and the institutions they deal with.In general, Legal Methods provides an introduction to the processes and the skills necessary in the professional use of case law and legislation, and to the development of American legal institutions. The casebook starts with materials from the first decades of American history, with relatively simple common law litigation, statutes and institutions, and with a country having to fashion its law for itself, largely through its courts. As the country industrializes, judicial styles change, statutes and their interpretation become more and more important, administrative agencies emerge. The materials largely explore the developing law on the related questions of product liability and
