David
E. Bernstein. Rehabilitating Lochner : defending individual rights against
progressive reform. The University of Chicago Press, 2011. KF228.L63B47
2011 This book provides a compelling survey of the history and
background of Lochner v. New York, which invalidated state laws
limiting work hours and became the leading case contending that novel
economic regulations were unconstitutional. Tracing the influence of this
decision through subsequent battles over segregation laws, sex
discrimination, civil liberties, and more, the author argues not only that
the court acted reasonably in Lochner, but that Lochner and
like-minded cases have been widely misunderstood and unfairly maligned ever
since. |

Anne
Orford. International authority and the responsibility to protect.
Cambridge University Press, 2011. KZ6374.O74
2011 The idea that states and the international community have
a responsibility to protect populations at risk has framed internationalist
debates about conflict prevention, humanitarian aid, peacekeeping and
territorial administration since 2001. This book situates the concept in a
broad historical and jurisprudential context, demonstrating that the appeal
to protection as the basis for de facto authority has emerged at times of
civil war or revolution - the Protestant revolutions of early modern Europe,
the bourgeois and communist revolutions of the following centuries and the
revolution that is decolonization. |
