Basically, these people view the Constitution as a finished project. This term was coined by Paul Brest in 1981 and he defined originalism as “the familiar approach to constitutional adjudication that accords binding authority to the text of the Constitution or the intentions of its adopters.” The living constitution view means that the Constitution is a “living” document. Such as a living person changes over time, so does the Constitution. These people view the Constitution as an initial framework for governance that sets politics in motion and must be filled out over time through constitutional construction. So the goal of this is to get the government started and keep it going and stable so it can solve future problems of governance.
I feel these laws have led to the historical development of security forces private as well as public because of the consistent need to grow, develop and protect. In creation of laws there is a test stage, what works and what may not, where it works and where is does not etc. and there is always going to be pros and cons. After reading the text, I feel that throughout history improved methods were structured to benefit security when and where needed. Why do you think the need for both private and public security still
Sources of American Law Maria PLA1003 Intro to Paralegal August 16, 2012 It is very useful to learn how to use legal research in our modern society but the basic search that you most know is how to use your primary sources. Primary Source consists on Court decisions, statutes enacted by legislative bodies, rules and regulations created by administrative agencies, presidential orders, and any document establishing the law.

Although, both Amir and Rahim Khan tell their stories in a formal manner. Hosseini does this to add ferocity to the story, whilst the change of manner of voice suggests a significant change to the reader. Hosseini uses the change of voice to show a turning point within the story as Hassan is brought back to Amir’s memory. The whole chapter is spoken in Rahim Khan’s narrative and is mostly his dialogue in monologue, though readers understand that Amir is listening as he references his presence, ‘‘You’d recognise him.’’ The style of monologue helps tell the story personally so that the readers become involved and indulge in every detail. It also allows sole focus on the story Rahim Khan is telling, once again pointing to extreme significance and importance within the story.

The most convincing argument for this case is the adaptability built into the constitution through ambiguous language and elastic clauses. The amendment process though strict does allow for the constitution to be changed to better fit contemporary circumstances, and the 18th and 21st amendments considering prohibition have shown that even the amendment process is able to change and repair ill considered amendments. The elastic clause, in article 1 of the constitution also allows for any laws to be passed as long as they are necessary and proper in executing the will of the constitution, it was this that allowed Bush junior to pass the patriot act and other anti terrorism legislation in the wake of 9/11. Also Judicial review, 1st established in the 1803 Marbury vs Madison case has allowed case law to be implemented to alter the inflection of the constitution, without changing the actual words, for example the cruel and unusual punishments phrase in the 8th amendment has been interpreted in some states to to forbid the death penalty. This difference between the state's government and the federal government has also allowed for the constitution to keep up to date by allowing a strong prosperous nation in which states could craft their own legislation which can be modern and specific, such as the way that Massachusetts was the first state to allow gay
For example, the ever-changing law on how discrimination went from sanctioning segregation to dissolving segregation illustrates how adaptable common law is. This law also derives its basis from these court proceedings called precedents to guide cases based on past rulings. The one disadvantage of common law is how cases will surmise. As Rogers (2012) attests, “even the best judicial minds often disagree, based at least in part on their judicial philosophy and political ideology” (Section 1.1). Depending on each of the judge’s beliefs, cases can go in any direction from their analysis.
Dr. Lint has worked at the department of political science in Vanderbilt University and is hence highly experienced in the issues of international law and its applications. Alexander provides various accounts including legislations to look at when focusing on abuse of human right to life. He says it is also important to note that in regards to ‘right to life’ there are several legislations that while protecting individual’s right to life, gives exceptions under which someone can lose the right to life. The European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms’ (ECHR) article number two holds that “Everyone rights to life shall be protected by law” (Brian 2002). This means that the article provision is not an absolute law in itself but a right that is subject to several other exceptions.
Shyla Corson Professor Griffin English Composition 1102 16 March 2013 Article Analysis The proof type most noticeable to me in the “A Flood of Suits Fights Coverage of Birth Control” article was Ethos. Ethos refers to the credibility of the author and is often conveyed through the tone of what is being said and also how the author speaks on different views. Ethan Bronner, the author, begins with the views of the government. He explains why the president along with the Supreme Court feel as if the new health care act is a good idea and their reasoning’s behind the creation and rulings in court cases. The information in the article wasn’t just made up, general statements however.
To protect their new freedom from tyranny, the colonists decided to separate powers. The Declaration of Independence is timeless because it serves as a guide for new nations to form under democracy. The document describes the limitations of government and what happens when a government tries to move beyond what it can control. The Declaration of Independence e was written to rally support for the revolution from other countries and to spread the new view upon democracy.
