Publisher's Synopsis

The Origin and Scope of the American Doctrine of Constitutional Law is a book written by James Bradley Thayer in 1893. The book is a detailed analysis of the American constitutional law and its development over time. Thayer discusses the origins of the American Constitution and how it has been interpreted and applied by the courts. The book is divided into three parts. The first part focuses on the history of American constitutional law, including the debates surrounding the drafting of the Constitution and the early Supreme Court decisions. The second part examines the scope of the American doctrine of constitutional law, including the concept of judicial review and the role of the judiciary in interpreting the Constitution. The third part of the book discusses the limits of the American doctrine of constitutional law, including the role of the executive and legislative branches of government and the limitations on individual rights. Thayer argues that the American Constitution is a living document that must be interpreted in light of changing circumstances and societal norms. Overall, The Origin and Scope of the American Doctrine of Constitutional Law is an important work in the field of American constitutional law. Thayer's analysis provides a comprehensive understanding of the development of American constitutional law and its impact on American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
