Description

This comprehensive anthology from Routledge traces the evolution of American legal thought from ancient civilisations through to the modern era. The collection explores foundational legal concepts rooted in pre-history, ancient Greece and Rome, and English common law before examining how America's unique legal system developed from the Constitution's drafting onwards. Readers will discover how American law acquired its distinctive character during the Golden Age of the early nineteenth century, the profound effects of slavery and the Civil War on legal doctrine, and the Progressive movement's efforts to regulate industrial capitalism between the post-Civil War period and the New Deal. Designed for the general public rather than specialists, this anthology makes complex legal history accessible whilst maintaining scholarly rigor. It serves as both an educational resource and a thoughtful examination of how historical events and ideas have shaped the American legal system we recognise today.
