Ashutosh
Bhagwat. The myth of rights : the purposes and limits of constitutional
rights. Oxford University Press, c2010. KF4749.B48
2010 This
book presents a structural approach to constitutional rights. The
author contends that rights are not entitlements to act as one pleases, but
instead, rights serve to restrain governmental power in order to maintain a
balance between citizens and the State. This structural approach is
applied by the author to a wide range of contemporary constitutional debates
including the constitutionality of bans on same-sex marriage, affirmative
action, abortion rights, and campaign finance reform. |
