Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book is the first full-length entry into the academic debate about Article V by an author with judicial credentials. It includes the proposal of a plan to conduct an Article V convention. The work will generate reactions and commentary from scholars, as well as from elected officials whose positions might be affected by convention proposals. |
