In this comprehensive collection of essays representing a lifetime
of scholarship, distinguished political scientist Richard Stevens
examines the fundamental principles of the American Constitutional
order. Stevens discusses the Constitution's roots in Renaissance
and Enlightenment political philosophy, and evaluates several major
twentieth-century constitutional commentators. With a focus on the
core of constitutional principle, Stevens critiques such views as
that the Constitution founds a mixed regime, or is rooted in
Christianity, or is a 'living constitution, ' or is to be
interpreted in the light of a 'higher law background.' Broad in
scope and penetrating in analysis, this book is essential reading
for students and scholars of constitutional law, American political
thought, and American history.
