The Law Of Democracy: Legal Structure Of The Political Process
by Samuel Issacharoff Pamela Karlan Richard Pildes Nathan PersilyThis book created the field of the law of democracy, offering a systematic account of the legal construction of American democracy. This edition is the most significant revision in a decade. With the addition of Nathaniel Persily, the book now turns to a changed legal environment following such blockbuster Supreme Court decisions as Citizens United and Shelby County. This edition streamlines the coverage of the Voting Rights Act, expands the scope of coverage of campaign finance and political corruption issues, and turns to the new dispute over voter access to the ballot. The basic structure of the book continues to follow the historical development of the individual right to vote; current struggles over gerrymandering; the relationship of the state to political parties; the constitutional and policy issues surrounding campaign-finance reform; and the tension between majority rule and fair representation of minorities in democratic bodies.

Puraporul Venba Malai
by IyyanaarithanaarThis lesson offers a brief introduction to Pura Porul Ilakkanam. Tamil grammar is broadly classified into 5 major divisions - ie the letter (sol), the word or ezhuthu , content or porul, prosody or yappu and figures of speech or ani. “Porul” is the content or the subject of any literary work. The ethics and codes governing the social and domestic life of the Tamils is largely the subject underlying ancient Tamil literature. Tamil grammarians devised the Porul Ilakkanam to codify the content of poetry. Similar to the way in which the inner universe is divided into 7 ‘tinais’ or modes, Tholkappiar, the ancient Tamil grammarian, also codified the behaviour pertaining to the external world into 7 ‘tinais’- viz. ‘vetchi’, vanji’, ‘uzhinjai’, ‘ thumbai’, ‘vaagai’, ‘kanchi’ and ‘paadaan’. ‘Pannirupadalam’ was the first grammar text to explain the various pura tinais. It was composed by the 12 disciples of Agathiyar, including Tholkappiar.Only a few verses of this text are extant today. ‘Puraporul Venba Malai’ is another grammar text on‘puram’ written later by Iyyanaarithanaar.
