In his new book, eminent legal scholar Michael Perry evaluates the grave charge that the modern Supreme Court has engineered a "judicial usurpation of politics." In particular, Perry inquires which of several major Fourteenth Amendment conflicts--over race segregation, race-based affirmative action, sex-based discrimination, homosexuality, abortion, and physician-assisted suicide--have been resolved as they should have been. He lays the necessary groundwork for his inquiry by addressing questions of both constitutional theory and constitutional history. A clear-eyed examination of some of the perennial controversies in American life, We the People is a major contribution to modern constitutional studies. 606 $aCivil rights$zUnited States 606 $aPolitical questions and judicial power$zUnited States 615 0$aCivil rights 615 0$aPolitical questions and judicial power 676 $a342.73085 700 $aPerry$b Michael J.$0545562 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777307203321 996 $aWe the people$9978301 997 $aUNINA
