Constitutional Rights: Cases in Context, 4th Edition by Randy E. Barnett and Josh Blackman focuses on the evolution of constitutional law since the nation’s founding, highlighting its fundamental principles and ongoing discussions. By showcasing both cases and their backgrounds, it illustrates the diverse narratives essential for all attorneys and constitutional law practitioners. This textbook tells the captivating story of American constitutional law. It is designed in easily digestible sections suitable for one-semester classes or shorter credit formats. Ample case excerpts provide the flexibility needed for various courses. Each case is thoughtfully complemented by relevant readings from a variety of sources. These readings strike a balance; long enough to impart critical arguments but concise enough to keep students engaged. Innovative study questions before each case encourage students to focus on key issues, prompting them to analyze the court’s opinions from different viewpoints and relate them to other cases. Students are motivated to reflect on ongoing foundational concepts and debates. The material is further supported by an extensive Teacher’s Manual and a yearly case supplement.
