This book presents a quantitative history of constitutional law in
the United States and brings together humanistic and
social-scientific approaches to studying law. Using theoretical
models of adjudication, Tom S. Clark presents a statistical model
of law and uses the model to document the historical development of
constitutional law. Using sophisticated statistical methods and
historical analysis of court decisions, the author documents how
social and political forces shape the path of law. Spanning the
history of constitutional law since Reconstruction, this book
illustrates the way in which the law evolves with American life and
argues that a social-scientific approach to the history of law
illuminates connections across disparate areas of the law,
connected by the social context in which the Constitution has been
interpreted.
