This book contains Supreme Court cases from the year 1982.
A record of Supreme Court decisions for the year of 1970.
The Supreme Court is likely to be a sadly debilitated institution
for some time to come. For history has made it clear that great
Justices are made not born; that experience on the Supreme Court is
itself a necessary though not a sufficient condition for judicial
eminence; that it takes time for any new appointee, however vast
his prior judicial experience, to meet the extraordinary challenges
that inhere in the job.
The papers in this collection are drawn from the annual "The
Supreme Court Review," which, since its inception in 1960, has been
regarded by such legal scholars as Robert F. Drinnan, S. J., as "An
indispensable, universally quoted work of the highest scholarship
regarding the world's most influential tribunal." Now some of the
most important contributions to the "Review" have been brought
together in paperback editions that focus on issues that are
becoming increasingly relevant to the ordinary citizen's daily
life.
Hailed as the Oxford English Dictionary of American constitutional
history, the print edition of The Founders' Constitution has proved
since its publication in 1987 to be an invaluable aid to all those
seeking a deeper understanding of one of our nation's most
important legal documents.
In this unique anthology, Philip B. Kurland and Ralph Lerner draw
on the writings of a wide array of people engaged in the problem of
making popular government safe, steady, and accountable. The
documents included range from the early seventeenth century to the
1830s, from the reflections of philosophers to popular pamphlets,
from public debates in ratifying conventions to the private
correspondence of the leading political actors of the day.
These rich and varied materials are arranged, first, according to
broad themes or problems to which the Constitution of 1787 has made
a significant and lasting contribution. Then they are arranged by
article, section, and clause of the U.S. Constitution, from the
Preamble through Article Seven and continuing through the first
twelve Amendments.
