Religion and the American Constitutional Experiment: Third Edition

Religion and the American Constitutional Experiment: Third Edition Book Description

Now in a new third edition, this multidisciplinary introduction to American religious liberty surveys the history, theory, law, and comparative analysis of American religious liberty from the earliest colonial period through the latest Supreme Court cases.
Emphasizing that administrative law must be understood within the context of the political system, this core text combines a descriptive systems approach with a social science focus. Author Kenneth F. Warren explains the role of administrative law in shaping, guiding, and restricting the actions of administrative agencies. Providing comprehensive coverage, he examines the field not only from state and federal angles, but also from the varying perspectives of legislators, administrators, and the public. Substantially revised, the fifth edition features approximately 100 new and current cases that place administrative law in the context of the Obama administration. In addition, each chapter concludes with an edited exemplary case that highlights major themes and helps students understand important points made in the chapter. Using straightforward prose and avoiding unnecessary legal jargon, Warren provides students with an informed and accessible overview of difficult subject matter.
