Description

Explore the historical importance of the Privileges or Immunities Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. This Routledge research text examines how this specific part of the US Constitution was designed to act as a central guarantor of civil rights and civil liberties following the Reconstruction era. While the clause could have been at the center of most constitutional controversies from the Reconstruction period through the modern era, it has often been cast aside due to historical reasons and precedent-setting narrow interpretations. This book provides a deep look into the original sense of the clause and its role in the American legal landscape. It is an essential resource for those studying constitutional law, civil rights history, and the evolution of legal precedents in the United States.
