- Synopsis
- Sager (law, U. of Texas, Austin) examines constitutional practice in the United States. He treats judges as active partners in the enterprise of securing the fundamentals of political justice and sees the process of constitutional adjudication as a distinctly democratic addition to that enterprise. He also presents a case for the constitutional right to secure a materially decent life and argues that the Constitution's obduracy to amendment is one of its virtues.
