This is the newest book in West's Global Issues series. It is a carefully condensed volume, designed to supplement constitutional law classes with international, comparative, and transnational law issues. It covers: constitutionalism, judicial review, horizontal and vertical separation of powers, and individual rights, including equal protection, due process, and free speech and religion. Professors can pick and choose among the topics, and the selections within the topics, inserting them as comparisons or elucidations in the core constitutional law courses. Carefully drafted note materials (and a teacher's manual) make the book self-contained, and easy to understand and introduce without additional background reading. This concise supplement expands the boundaries of the traditional constitutional law courses, presenting the world view that professors, students and lawyers practicing in the 21st century need to know.
