  • Against Obligation

    The Multiple Sources of Authority in a Liberal Democracy

    de Abner S. Greene ...
    Greene argues that citizens are not morally obligated to obey the law and that officials need not follow prior or higher authority when reading the Constitution. The sources of authority in a liberal democracy are multiple—the law must compete with other norms. Constitutional meaning is not locked in, historically or by the Supreme Court. ... Leer más

  • Canada's Indigenous Constitution

    de John Borrows ...
    Canada's Indigenous Constitution reflects on the nature and sources of law in Canada, beginning with the conviction that the Canadian legal system has helped to engender the high level of wealth and security enjoyed by people across the country.

  • The Conscience of the Constitution

    The Declaration of Independence and the Right to Liberty

    de Timothy Sandefur ...
    The Conscience of the Constitution: The Declaration of Independence and the Right to Liberty documents a forgotten truth: the word “democracy” is nowhere to be found in either the Constitution or the Declaration. But it is the overemphasis of democracy by the legal community–rather than the primacy of liberty, as expressed in the Declaration of Independence–that has led to the growth of government ...

  • The Framers' Coup

    The Making of the United States Constitution

    de Michael J. Klarman ...
    Americans revere their Constitution. However, most of us are unaware how tumultuous and improbable the drafting and ratification processes were. As Benjamin Franklin keenly observed, any assembly of men bring with them "all their prejudices, their passions, their errors of opinion, their local interests and their selfish views." One need not deny that the Framers had good intentions in order to ... Leer más

  • More Essential than Ever

    The Fourth Amendment in the Twenty First Century

    de Stephen J. Schulhofer ...
    Series series Inalienable Rights
    When the states ratified the Bill of Rights in the eighteenth century, the Fourth Amendment seemed straightforward. It requires that government respect the right of citizens to be "secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures." Of course, "papers and effects" are now digital and thus more vulnerable to government spying. But the biggest threat ... Leer más

  • The Executive Unbound

    After the Madisonian Republic

    de Eric A. Posner, Adrian Vermeule ...
    Ever since Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr. used "imperial presidency" as a book title, the term has become central to the debate about the balance of power in the U.S. government. Since the presidency of George W. Bush, when advocates of executive power such as Dick Cheney gained ascendancy, the argument has blazed hotter than ever. Many argue the Constitution itself is in grave danger. What is to be ... Leer más

  • Patriation and Its Consequences

    Constitution Making in Canada

    Edición de Lois Harder, Steve Patten ...

This volume revisits these constitutional negotiations, including the personalities, visions, and political struggles that shaped the resulting constitutional agreement. ... Leer más

  • Our Undemocratic Constitution

    Where the Constitution Goes Wrong (And How We the People Can Correct It)

    de Sanford Levinson ...
    The Constitution is one of the most revered documents in American politics. Yet this is a document that regularly places in the White House candidates who did not in fact get a majority of the popular vote. It gives Wyoming the same number of votes as California, which has seventy times the population of the Cowboy State. And it offers the President the power to overrule both houses of Congress on ...

  • The Metaethics of Constitutional Adjudication

    de Bosko Tripkovic ...
    Series series Oxford Constitutional Theory
    In this book Bosko Tripkovic develops a theory of value-based arguments in constitutional adjudication. In contrast to the standard question of constitutional theory that asks whether the courts get moral answers wrong, it asks a more fundamental question of whether the courts get the morality itself wrong. Tripkovic argues for an antirealist conception of value -one that does not presuppose the ... Leer más
