One of the principles on which our country was founded was the principle of property rights. John Adams, our second president stated: “The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, anarchy and tyranny commence.” And this is what is happening in America because our people do not understand what property rights are — as a result, much of what we see in the deterioration of Americanism today is due to this ignorance. This book explores in simple language and detail what property rights entail. It is a surprising and comprehensive exposé ...

The United States has the world’s highest rate of incarceration, a form of punishment that ruins lives and makes a return to prison more likely. With the authority of a prominent legal scholar and the practical insights gained through on-the-ground work on criminal-justice reform, Rachel Barkow explains how dangerous it is to base criminal-justice policy on the whims of the electorate, which puts judges, sheriffs, and politicians in office.

Nobody's Child traces the legal definition of "insanity" back to its inception in Victorian Britain nearly 200 years ago, from when our understanding of the human mind was in its infancy, to today, when questions of race, class, and ability so often determine who is legally "insane" and who is criminally guilty. Vinocour explains how "competency" and "insanity" are creatures of a legal system, not of psychiatric reality, and how, in criminal law, the insanity defense has too often been a luxury of the rich and white.

The American Revolution is replete with seminal moments that every American learns in school, from the “shot heard ‘round the world” to the Declaration of Independence, but the events that led up to the fighting at Lexington & Concord were borne out of 10 years of division between the British and their American colonies over everything from colonial representation in governments to taxation, the nature of searches, and the quartering of British regulars in private houses.

One of the great ironies of the Enlightenment was that various societies produced the notion of the inalienable rights of man, bequeathed by God, alongside the long-established and deeply entrenched institution of slavery. As fate would have it, the refusal of Northern states to strictly apply the new fugitive slave law would be explicitly cited in several of the Southern states’ articles of secession in late 1860 and early 1861. In that regard, the Fugitive Slave Act ended up being one of the main tipping points that finally split the nation in two.

When the judiciary fails to deliver justice and turns a blind eye to the trouble in the streets, it's the time for the ordinary folks to convince them to do something, "we see people wasting away, we are losing lives, social structures have lost their steering and direction, even a police station is not a safe place to hide anymore," says a young activist lawyer to the supreme court judge, "all this is happening right under your nose while you sit right there on your high throne-like chair doing nothing as if you were a supreme being, wouldn’t you at least say something your highness? you...

In the past few years, the scientific paradigm has shifted dramatically, from seeing the natural world as a kind of cosmic machine to understanding it as a network of fluidly interacting communities. But law is stuck in a mechanistic, 17th-century view that the world is made up of discrete individual parts.
