On Equal Terms
Author: Douglas S. Reed
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 069122773X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
Since Brown v. Board of Education and the desegregation battles of the 1960s and 1970s, the legal pursuit of educational opportunity in the United States has been framed largely around race. But for nearly thirty years now, a less-noticed but controversial legal campaign has been afoot to equalize or improve the resources of poorly funded schools. This book examines both the consequences of efforts to use state constitutional provisions to reduce the "resource segregation" of American schools and the politics of the opposition to these decisions. On Equal Terms compares the relative success of school finance lawsuits to the project of school desegregation and explores how race and class present sharply different obstacles to courts. Since a 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision that effectively deferred to the states in the matter of educational equity, about a third of state judiciaries have mandated reform of state-level educational funding systems. Douglas Reed analyzes both the rhetoric of reform and the varying effects of these controversial decisions while critiquing the courts' failure to more clearly define educational equity. Well-written with keen insight throughout, the book concludes with an intriguing policy proposal that acknowledges obstacles to such efforts. This proposal aims to enhance education by fostering racial and economic integration locally. Setting the stage for a more coherent debate on this controversial issue and expanding our understanding of constitutional design, On Equal Terms will have far-reaching implications for law, public policy, politics, and not least, the future of American education.

The Art of Judging
Author: James Edward Bond
Publisher: Transaction Publishers
ISBN: 141283595X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
The single most important issue in American constitutional law is that of the role the Supreme Court should play in the interpretation of the Constitution. This issue has been a source of controversy at least since 1803, when Chief Justice John Marshall proclaimed that the Supreme Court could declare acts of Congress unconstitutional. But public attention has been refocused on it by debates over whether it is desirable, or even possible, to interpret the Constitution strictly in terms of the original intent of the framers.
