The legal analysis fuses with an exploration of democratic theory, We the People, efforts in contesting this power. It also explores the class status of the American Constitution and the difficulties of amending it through its many protections against making major changes to its structure. The book makes inquires as to whether the document should be preserved as interpreted by Originalists or can be subject to change as interpreted by Progressives---the “Living” Document theorists and the “Dead” Document opponents. It is argued that the power of judicial review must be withdrawn from the Supreme Court and the need for the modernization of the American political institutions. The book’s approach is to use an interdisciplinary methodology by which it weaves a linear and non-linear aspects of inquiry. The book will be of interested to a broad readership, including those working in the fields of (constitutional) law, legal history. political philosophy, political science and political theory. 0aLawxPhilosophy.967596 0aLawxHistory.967597 0aConstitutional law. 0aPrivate international law.965660 0aConflict of laws.965661 0aInternational law.958292 0aComparative law.965662 0aAmericaxPolitics and government.96947514aTheories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History.96760024aConstitutional Law.24aPrivate International Law, International and Foreign Law, Comparative Law.96566724aAmerican Politics.9694772 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303166905708iPrinted edition:z978303166907108iPrinted edition:z978303166908840uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-66906-4  aZDB-2-LCR  aZDB-2-SXLC  c62718d62718
