Ex Uno Plura uses a political culture approach to explore eight state constitutional traditions. McHugh argues that state jurisprudence is not merely a reflection of the process, values, and decisions found at the federal level, especially through the influence of the Fourteenth Amendment. A close examination of separate state constitutions, including their origins, sociopolitical cultures, and jurisprudence, reveals historically, culturally, and philosophically unique characteristics, each of which will contribute to the ongoing debate concerning American judicial federalism. The states included are Alaska, California, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Utah, Vermont, and Wyoming. 606 $aConstitutional history$zUnited States$xStates 606 $aConstitutional law$zUnited States$xStates 606 $aState governments$zUnited States 615 0$aConstitutional history$xStates. 615 0$aConstitutional law$xStates. 615 0$aState governments 676 $a342.73/029 700 $aMcHugh$b James T.$f1961-$0623526 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814466203321 996 $aEx uno plura$94028117 997 $aUNINA
