This book analyzes the structure of our constitutional system of government, providing an overview of the constitutional history of American federalism as it has been developed in decisions of the United States Supreme Court.Federalism: A Reference Guide to the United States Constitution provides a thorough examination of this significant and distinctive part of the U.S. constitutional system, documenting its role in major domestic constitutional controversies in every period of American history.Although the book is organized historically rather than doctrinally, the marked evolutions of important areas of doctrine are addressed over time. These subject areas include the scope of Congress's power under the Commerce Clause, the scope of Congress's powers under the Fourteenth and other post-Civil War Amendments, the states' authority to regulate commercial and economic matters when Congress is silent, the principle of the supremacy of federal law and the law of preemption that follows from it, intergovernmental and sovereign immunities, the obligation of state courts to enforce federal law, and the scope of national power to regulate or impose obligations on the states.

Recenzii

This is the latest in a series titled Reference Guides to the United States Constitution. Dubbed as a reference guide, it is really a comprehensive treatise on the development of federalism as seen through Supreme Court decisions. . . . Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.
With its emphasis on decisions regarding the rights and responsibilities of the federal and state governments, this title is an excellent complement to John Vile's historical approach in the Encyclopedia of Constitutional Amendments, Proposed Amendments, and Amending Issues, 1789-2010. . . . Recommended for upper-division political science, pre-law, and law students studying constitutional law and the role the U.S. Supreme Court plays in determining limitations of the federal and state governments.
