"This is an outstanding collection of essays on the problems posed by the fact that too often constitutional theorists and teachers focus exclusively on the United States Constitution while ignoring the constitutions of the fifty states. In reality, American constitutional law embraces both the national constitution and the state constitutions. The essays are all truly illuminating, deserving wide readership and, more importantly, discussion of their oftenchallenging arguments." --Sanford Levinson University of Texas Law School and Department of Government, University of Texas at Austin"This work breaks important new ground in constitutional law. Although the federal Constitution provided exclusive focus for most of our history, more recently state constitutions have drawn attention, but were distinguished from the federal document and analyzed separately. These essays, written by leading figures in state constitutional law and federalism, refocus the analysis and reveal the more complex, interrelated and evolving nature of Americanconstitutional federalism. They will be essential to future discussions of state and federal constitutional law." --Robert F. Williams Distinguished Professor of Law, Rutgers University School of Law, Camden"This work is an essential resource for anyone interested in the study of state constitutional law. Essays authored by some of the most distinguished scholars in the field set forth the innovative thesis that state and federal constitutional law must be viewed together as partners in a complex, collective enterprise of constitutional self-government, rather than as distinct areas of jurisprudence. The work both fundamentally rewrites our theoreticalunderstanding of state constitutional law while providing fresh new and important insights into such topical issues as the constitutionality of prohibitions on same-sex marriage and the role of the states inenforcing federal regulatory mandates." --William P. Marshall Kenan Professor of Law, University of North Carolina
