The Ideas Behind Constitutions and their Role in Securing and Protecting or Violating Human Rights – The Case of the United States of America
In this new lecture series, Edward J. Dodson will present nearly two and a half century of ideological and political struggles over the system of governance and law mandated under the Constitution of the United States. For Americans, these lectures will hopefully stimulate thoughtfulness as they prepare to elect a President and members of the U.S. Congress and for citizens of other countries, provide a concise overview of the major forces and events that gave rise to the “American System.”
