The Methods of Changing the Constitutions of the States: Especially That of Rhode Island (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Methods of Changing the Constitutions of the States: Especially That of Rhode Island
Still, as the bill was not passed, it may be hereafter; the question mav be canvassed elsewhere. It pertains to the class of constitutional questions which, in the new departure of our constitution, require careful study. And the high authority of the judges in Rhode Island against the doctrine may justify an attempt to vindicate it.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the legal and historical aspects of constitutional change in Rhode Island. It examines the traditional method of amending the constitution through legislation and the alternative method of calling a constitutional convention. The author argues that the convention method is a valid and constitutional means of changing the Rhode Island constitution, despite the existence of a provision for legislative amendment. The author supports this argument with an analysis of the relevant constitutional provisions, historical precedents, and legal reasoning. The book also discusses the broader question of the power of the people to alter their constitutions and the role of the courts in interpreting constitutional provisions. Overall, this book provides a comprehensive and well-researched analysis of constitutional change in Rhode Island and its implications for American constitutional law. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
