This supplement brings the principal text current with recent
developments in the law.
This casebook on the law of sexual orientation and gender identity
weaves interdisciplinary perspectives into the up-to-date coverage
of a rapidly changing legal landscape. It provides comprehensive
coverage of the range of legal issues concerning LGBTQ persons,
along with scholarly commentary on these issues. It also covers
issues of sexuality and gender more broadly. It addresses in depth
many significant recent developments, including the Supreme Court's
landmark decision interpreting the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as
prohibiting discrimination on the basis of gender identity and
sexual orientation, and the growing set of religious liberty claims
asserted by opponents of LGBTQ equality measures. The book also
extensively covers gender identity issues, including the challenges
faced by transgender individuals in accessing sex-segregated
facilities, adequate healthcare, and equal educational and athletic
opportunities.
This supplement brings the principal text current with recent
developments in the law.
The new edition of Farber, Eskridge, Frickey, and Schacter's Cases
and Materials on Constitutional Law exploits two of the most
exciting developments in Constitutional Law teaching in the last
thirty years: the judiciary's dramatic engagement with social
movements and key political debates, and academic and judicial
deployment of original meaning as a central methodology. Thus, the
new edition presents a most systematic introduction of original
meaning methodology for law students, starting with the evolution
of "originalism" in response to the academic debates over Brown v.
Board of Education, and continuing with in-depth examination of
what original meaning teaches us about the Fourteenth Amendment, as
well as the First and Second Amendments, the Commerce Clause and
other authorizations for congressional regulation, and the
separation of powers. The new edition provides in-depth treatment
of the most exciting issues in constitutional law today-including
the validity of affirmative action, the continuing battle over
abortion restrictions, the recognition of same sex marriage and the
continuing clash between claims based on gay rights and those based
on religious freedom, the expanded use of the First Amendment to
limit economic regulation, more aggressive deployment of
justiciability limitations based upon Article III, and issues of
presidential power posed by the current Administration as well as
its recent predecessors.
