| description | The authors of Enlightenment Traditions and the Legal and Political System of the United States of America invite readers on a unique journey that will acquaint them with American political ideas born out of the Enlightenment, as well as contemporary legal challenges faced by the oldest modern republic and liberal democracy. Throughout the reading, one can familiarize themselves with various subjects, including the controversial Supreme Court ruling on abortion, the migration crisis at the Mexican border, issues within the legal education system, the American practice of carrying out the death penalty, procedural challenges encountered during the enactment of the federal budget, and the philosophical foundations of the American Revolution. The United States of America in the 21st century remains a true progeny of Enlightenment philosophy and tradition, as well as the result of nearly 250 years of evolution and operation of its political and legal system. American governance, law, and political thought have developed since the end of the 17th century and today form the foundation of the Euro-Atlantic order. Therefore, reflecting on it constitutes an exceptionally interesting and beneficial task. However, the goal of the publication is not only to describe concepts born in the 18th century but also to address selected contemporary institutions and legal regulations that are the outcome of this evolution. The book is divided into three parts, in which the authors discuss selected political ideas, characterize chosen elements of the governance and political system, and present opinions on key civil rights and liberties. |
