William
N. Eskridge Jr., John Ferejohn. A republic of statutes : the new American
Constitution. Yale University Press, c2010. KF4550.E837
2010 This
book presents a nontraditional framework for thinking about American
constitutionalism. Instead of emphasizing the words and structure of
the Constitution, this framework focuses on the primary instruments of the
political process itself such as statutes, executive orders, and agency
rules. The authors assert that while the Constitution provides a
vision, our democracy advances by means of these other instruments that
supplement or even supplant the written Constitution. |

contexts of the Treaty and its impact on the democratic framework of the

functions, powers, and governing treaties. |
