The Rights of Territorial Inhabitants --Conclusion: Imperial Reflections --Notes --IndexThe Constitution of Empire offers a constitutional and historical survey of American territorial expansion from the founding era to the present day. The authors describe the Constitution's design for territorial acquisition and governance and examine the ways in which practice over the past two hundred years has diverged from that original vision. Noting that most of America's territorial acquisitions-including the Louisiana Purchase, the Alaska Purchase, and the territory acquired after the Mexican-American and Spanish-American Wars-resulted from treaties, the authors elaborate a Jeffersonian-based theory of the federal treaty power and assess American territorial acquisitions from this perspective. They find that at least one American acquisition of territory and many of the basic institutions of territorial governance have no constitutional foundation, and they explore the often-strange paths that constitutional law has traveled to permit such deviations from the Constitution's original meaning.ImperialismHistoryConstitutional historyUnited StatesConstitutional lawUnited StatesUnited StatesTerritorial expansionUnited StatesPolitics and governmentPhilosophyUnited StatesTerritories and possessionsPolitics and governmentElectronic books.ImperialismHistory.Constitutional historyConstitutional law342.73/0413Lawson Gary1958-1034120Seidman Guy882719MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452005403321The constitution of empire2453049UNINA01166nam a22002891i 450099100033483970753620240321150126.0040920s2003 it |||||||||||||||||ita 9788849507898b13206539-39ule_instARCHE-115277Set.
