Book The American Supreme Court

    Book Details:
  • Author : Robert G. McCloskey
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2016-05-02
  • ISBN : 022629692X
  • Pages : 418 pages

Download or read book The American Supreme Court written by Robert G. McCloskey and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-05-02 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sixth edition of the classic and concise account of the US Supreme Court, its history, and its place in American politics. For more than fifty years, Robert G. McCloskey’s classic work on the Supreme Court’s role in constructing the US Constitution has introduced generations of students to the workings of our nation’s highest court. As in prior editions, McCloskey’s original text remains unchanged. In his historical interpretation, he argues that the strength of the Court has always been its sensitivity to the changing political scene, as well as its reluctance to stray too far from the main currents of public sentiment. In this new edition, Sanford Levinson extends McCloskey’s magisterial treatment to address developments since the 2010 election, including the Supreme Court’s decisions regarding the Defense of Marriage Act, the Affordable Care Act, and gay marriage. The best and most concise account of the Supreme Court and its place in American politics, McCloskey’s wonderfully readable book is an essential guide to the past, present, and future prospects of this institution. Praise for The American Supreme Court “The classic account of the American Supreme Court by the mid-twentieth century’s most astute student of American constitutionalism updated by the early twenty-first century’s most astute student of American constitutionalism. This is the first work constitutional beginners should—and constitutional scholars do—turn to.” —Mark Graber, University of Maryland School of Law “Essential. . . . This fifth edition carries on the tradition of earlier iterations, keeping McCloskey’s keen insights, analytical framework, and normative instincts intact. . . . Levinson supplements the original argument with chapters . . . that draw on his remarkable intellectual range and invite readers to continue asking the still-salient questions McCloskey set forth a half-century earlier.” —Choice, on the fifth edition

Book The Creation of American Law

Download or read book The Creation of American Law written by Jude M. Pfister and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-11-12 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the Constitutional Convention in 1787, America was set on a course to develop a unique system of law with roots in the English common law tradition. This new system, its foundations in Article III of the Constitution, called for a national judiciary headed by a supreme court--which first met in 1790. This book serves as a history of America's national law with a look at those--such as John Jay (the first Chief), James Iredell, Bushrod Washington and James Wilson--who set in motion not only the new Supreme Court, but also the new federal judiciary. These founders displayed great dexterity in maneuvering through the fraught political landscape of the 1790s.

Book The A to Z of the Jacksonian Era and Manifest Destiny

Download or read book The A to Z of the Jacksonian Era and Manifest Destiny written by Terry Corps and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2009 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brief period from 1829 to 1849 was one of the most important in American history. During just two decades, the American government was strengthened, the political system consolidated, and the economy diversified. All the while literature and the arts, the press and philanthropy, urbanization, and religious revivalism sparked other changes. The belief in Manifest Destiny simultaneously caused expansion across the continent and the wretched treatment of the Native Americans, while arguments over slavery slowly tore a rift in the country as sectional divisions grew and a national crisis became almost inevitable. The A to Z of the Jacksonian Era and Manifest Destiny takes a close look at these sensitive years. Through a chronology that traces events year-by-year and sometimes even month-by-month actions are clearly delineated. The introduction summarizes the major trends of the epoch and the four administrations therein. The details are then supplied in several hundred cross-referenced dictionary entries, and the bibliography concludes this essential tool for anyone interested in history.

Book The U S  Supreme Court and Racial Minorities

Download or read book The U S Supreme Court and Racial Minorities written by Leslie F. Goldstein and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Supreme Court and Racial Minorities offers an in-depth, chronologically arranged look at the record of the U.S. Supreme Court on racial minorities over the course of its first two centuries. It does not pose the anachronistic standard, “Did the Supreme Court get it right?” but rather, “How did the Supreme Court compare to other branches of the federal government at the time?” Have these Justices, prevented against removal from office by discontented voters (in contrast to the President and the members of Congress), done any better than the elected branches of government at protecting racial minorities in America?
