Right to Due Process

The Bill of Rights series highlights the living and breathing document. Each anthology focuses on one civil right guaranteed by the amendments and traces its evolution throughout American history to the present. Primary documents -- including landmark Supreme Court rulings -- reveal the ongoing effort to define the exact meaning of the text and apply its abstract concepts to real-world cases. Secondary sources, including magazine articles and book excerpts, add an additional layer of analysis and commentary. Taken together, the volumes of The Bill of Rights series illuminate the defining ideals of American democracy.Troisi-Paton, Kimberly is the author of 'Right to Due Process', published 2005 under ISBN 9780737719413 and ISBN 0737719419.
