Contents:
Chapter One: An Introduction to Constitutional Law and The Issue of State Action -- Chapter Two: Introduction To Constitutional Interpretation and Judicial Review -- Chapter Three: Slavery and Racial Equality -- Chapter Four: Race and Equal Protection -- Chapter Five: Nonracial Classifications and Equal Protection -- Chapter Six: Fundamental Rights and Equal Protection -- Chapter Seven: The Privileges or Immunities Clause -- Chapter Eight: Incorporation and Fundamental Rights -- Chapter Nine: The Second Amendment -- Chapter Ten: Unenumerated Rights and Due Process -- Chapter Eleven: Liberty, Due Process, and Equal Protection -- Chapter Twelve: State Constitutions
Subject: This Casebook is intended to be used in a course which concentrates on Constitutional Rights and centers the Fourteenth Amendment. It can be used in a first year Law School course with a title such as “Liberty, Equality, and Due Process,” as it is at CUNY School of Law, an upper division Constitutional Rights course, or an advanced undergraduate course focusing on constitutional rights, especially equality and due process. The Casebook begins with the threshold issue of “state action” which orients students to a basic but often under-taught principle of constitutional law. The Casebook then considers judicial review and constitutional interpretation. Chapters 3-6 center on equality, including slavery before the Reconstruction Amendments, equal protection for racial, gender, and other classifications, affirmative action, and fundamental rights in equal protection doctrine. Chapters 7-9 are shorter chapters that consider the Privileges or Immunities Clause, Incorporation of Bill of Rights provisions to the states, and the Second Amendment. Chapter 10 focuses on substantive due process, with Chapter 11 treating the “synergy” between due process and equal protection regarding fundamental rights. The brief last Chapter, Chapter 12, includes materials on state constitutional rights, which can be omitted or integrated into previous subjects.
