Publisher Description: Many individuals believe they understand the nature of the American Constitution and how it relates to the issue of sovereignty. Sometimes, however, the illusion of knowledge is what prevents a person from taking the opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of the principles, problems, and dynamics to which various foundational ideas -- such as rights, powers, religion, republicanism, and so on -- give expression. The present book -- Sovereignty and the Constitution: An Unexpurgated Guided Tour -- takes the reader on a journey through an array of ideas that explore the relationship between sovereignty and the amended Constitution in a very different way than is done normally by many people, and, as such, seeks to induce the reader to critically reflect on a variety of fundamental principles concerning the issue of self-governance. Particular attention in the book is given to: The establishment clause; concept of republicanism; the issue of rights; natural law; the tenth amendment; hermeneutical styles of framing the Constitution; philosophies of law; leadership; education, liberty; freedom; the rule of law, and sovereignty. |
