O knihe
Expansion of executive power has ignited national debate: Is the administration authorized to detain people without charges or access to counsel, due process, or a fair trial? In this study of the use of plenary power?the doctrine under which U.S. courts have allowed the exercise of U.S. jurisdiction without concomitant constitutional protection?Natsu Taylor Saito puts contemporary policies in historical perspective, illustrating how such extensions of power have been upheld by courts since the 1880s. Saito provides context for understanding problems resulting from exercise of plenary power and its sanction by Congress and the judiciary, arguing that such actions have undermined individual rights and the foundation of our national security?democracy and the rule of law. This book will interest readers concerned with the history of constitutional protection and provides fascinating material for scholars, teachers, and students of law, history, and ethnic studies.
