New. $12.95 Moore's analytical survey considers what the U.S. Supreme Court has accomplished through its power to declare statutes unconstitutional. Although he restricts his focus to the federal level he considers state cases in some detail and includes an appendix that lists cases in which state enactments were declared unconstitutional because of their confl ict with the federal constitution. Moore also discusses early attitudes of state courts before Marbury v. Madison and the attitudes of federal courts after that decision.

Ayusawa begins with the origins of international labor legislation in the early nineteenth-century and concludes with an analysis of the 1919 Washington Conference. Important for its historical perspective this study shows that the central issues of globalization debated today such as the international community's right to demand changes in local labor practices are the same ones that affected its first phase during the late-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Evans suggests an intriguing distinction between trials of specific animals or particular crimes such as the "murder" of an infant by a pig and trials for larger catastrophic events such as plagues and infestations. In the latter case Evans suggests a parallel to witchcraft. unknown books

New. $14.95 "The distinguished English historian Professor Holdsworth has contrived even during his moments of recreation to render us his debtors. No two books outside the bounds of technical law are more worth reading for law students than Pickwick Papers and Bleak House. Even a trained trial lawyer however is puzzled by some of the legal points brought up by Dickens because they have fortunately passed forever out of the realm of living law. Professor Holdsworth has performed a valuable service to lawyers and laymen alike in explaining these obscurities. And he has done much more than this. He has increased our admiration for the genius of Dickens by proving his great merit as a legal historian.": Zechariah Chafee Jr. Harvard Law Review 42:286-8. unknown books

New. $14.95 The published version of a Columbia University doctoral thesis this pioneering monograph reviews all of the laws enacted by the United States and each individual state to 1917 relating specifically to African-Americans. Based on painstaking research this is a valuable reference for students of civil rights and African-American legal history. "The Development of State Legislation Concerning the Free Negro is an odd but very important and extremely useful book. Written nearly a century ago it is an example of the best of the Ph.D. dissertations of the first generation of doctoral students in the social sciences. It lacks any great theoretical framework or much analysis but it is chock full of information facts tables and excerpts from laws. It is also useful because many of the laws set out in this volume are not easily found otherwise. Despite the massive growth of material on the internet or in machine readable form early laws are still hard to locate. Anyone interested in the history of segregation and racism will find Johnson's pioneering work invaluable." -- Paul Finkelman Introduction iii. unknown books

Legal and Political Hermeneutics or Principles of Interpretation and Construction in Law and Politics with Remarks on Precedents and Authorities. Enlarged Edition. Originally published: Boston: Charles C. Little and James Brown 1839. xii 13-240 pp. Reprinted 2010 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781616190293. ISBN-10: 1616190299. Paperback. New. $14.95 This work received high praise from Chancellor Kent Henry Clay Rufus Choate Joseph Story and others. At the time of publication there was a great deal of debate about the interpretation of the United States Constitution and this book is Lieber's contribution to that debate. He asserts that Constitutions should be read closely since their words were carefully measured and distinguishes between interpretation "the art of finding out the true sense of any form of words" and construction as the drawing of conclusions respecting the subjects that lie outside the direct expression of the text. "The Hermeneutics was intended as a chapter of his Political Ethics but became so extended that it was published separately. His distinction between interpretation and construction had great influence among legal writers of his day." DAB. Lieber was a professor of history and political economy at South Carolina College and later at Columbia College and Columbia Law School. He is best known for drafting guidelines for the humane conduct of the Union army. One of these General Orders Number 100 better known as the "Lieber Code" was adopted by other nations and formed the basis for such international treaties as the Hague Regulations of 1907.

New. $14.95 Reprint of the third edition. Published after the Glorious Revolution of 1688 brought William of Orange and Mary to the throne but written in the throes of the Whig revolutionary plots against Charles II in the early 1680s John Locke offers a theory of natural law and natural rights which distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate civil governments and argues for the legitimacy of revolt against tyrannical governments. These radical ideas remain influential today. In these two treatises the political philosopher John Locke espouses radical theories which influenced the ideologies of the American and French revolutions and became the basis for the social and political philosophies of Rousseau Voltaire and the United States founding fathers. In the first treatise Locke aims to refute the doctrine of the patriarchal and absolute right of the Divine Right of Kings doctrine put forth by Sir Robert Filmer's Patriarcha. He examines key Biblical passages to prove that scripture does not support Filmer's premise. The second treatise offers Locke's positive theory of government in which he establishes a theory which reconciles the liberty of the citizen with political order. His basic premise is founded on the independence of the individual. He declares that men are born free and equal in their rights and that wealth is the product of labor. In his revolutionary theory of the social contract he proposes that a legitimate civil government must preserve the rights to life liberty health and property of its citizens and prosecute and punish those in violation of those rights. JOHN LOCKE 1632-1704 a leading philosopher of the Enlightenment is widely considered to be the father of liberalism. He was initially trained as a physician receiving a doctorate in medicine at Oxford. He was an important influence on Monte. unknown books

"Mr. Justice Riddell's lectures delivered in 1923 at Columbia University aim at bringing out the essentially democratic character of the constitution of Canada despite the traditional monarchical form of the government. Apart from their immediate object they have a more general appeal as a result of the elaborate notes which illustrate and support the statements of the text. The exposition is of course of great interest and value as representing the views of one immediately engaged in the interpretation of the Dominion Constitution." --A. Berriedale Keith 6 J. Comp.
