中文简介:
正如过去几年的事件所显示的那样,最高法院在美国政治生活中发挥了至关重要的作用。在美国历史上,几乎没有什么社会意义的问题在某个时候没有在国家的法庭上终结,但是宪法的大部分工作仍然是模糊的。本课程旨在向学生介绍1787年以来美国宪法的主要主题和事件。它介绍了法律和法律历史的术语和概念,重点介绍了美国公共生活中经常出现的三个主题:自由、平等和财产。阅读材料主要包括最初的法院案例,特别是来自美国最高法院的案例,但本课程的重点是这些案例与更广泛的社会、政治和文化趋势之间的历史联系。
课程简介: As events of the last few years have shown, the Supreme Court has played a crucial role in American political life. There is practically no issue of social significance in the American past that did not at some point end up in the nation's courtrooms, yet much of the workings of the constitution remain obscure. This subject is designed to introduce students to the main themes and events of American constitutional law since 1787. It introduces terms and concepts of law and legal history, focusing on three recurring themes in American public life: liberty, equality, and property. Readings consist mostly of original court cases, especially from the U.S. Supreme Court, but the focus of the class is on the historical connections between those cases and broader social, political, and cultural trends.
