Sexuality and the Law
First Published in 1993. Sexuality and the Law: An Encyclopedia of Major Legal Cases is the third volume to appear in the American Law and Society series. Consistent with the philosophy of the series, the more than 100 essay/entries in Sexuality and the Law deal with important legal issues without descending into jargon or lawyer's Latin. This book describes more than one hundred significant court decisions concerning sexual ity.
51 Imperfect Solutions
51Imperfect Solutions argues that American Constitutional Law should account for the role of the state courts and state constitutions, together with the federal courts and the federal constitution, in protecting our individual liberties. An underappreciation of state constitutional law has hurt state and federal law and has undermined the appropriate balance between state and federal courts in protecting individual liberty. The book corrects this imbalance and illustrates the virtues of federalism for all Americans.
Judicial Independence in the Age of Democracy
This collection of essays by leading scholars of constitutional law looks at a critical component of constitutional democracy--judicial independence--from an international comparative perspective. Peter H. Russell's introduction outlines a general theory of judicial independence, while the contributors analyze a variety of regimes from the United States and Latin America to Russia and Eastern Europe, Western Europe and the United Kingdom, Australia, Israel, Japan, and South Africa. Russell's conclusion compares these various regimes in light of his own analytical framework.
