内容简介


This is a treatise on individual rights and liberties under the U.S. Constitution. The book contains reference to more than 2,500 opinions of the U.S. Supreme Court, and covers, in a comprehensive way, ten major decisional areas: general issues of constitutional rights; procedural rights (including fundamental rights in criminal procedure); personal inviolability and liberty; substantive guarantees against criminal or civil penalties; personal or family privacy and autonomy; searches and seizures; freedoms of conscience, thought and religion (including the Establishment Clause); freedoms of speech, press, assembly and association; substantive protection of property rights and economic interests; and, equal protection. It also includes an introductory chapter on the Supreme Court, its organization, jurisdiction, and procedures, and the exercise of judicial review. The book offers, to both American and European scholars and students, an insightful and, detailed summarization of the U.S. Supreme Court's case law in the field. In the interest of accuracy, the text stays close to, and often reproduces, the actual language of the Court's decisions. In many cases, the presentation and analysis are based on the Court's own analysis and understanding of its prior decisions.
