The Rhode Island Question (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the 1844 Supreme Court case of Martin Luther vs. Luther M. Borden et al., and the broader question of the legitimacy of changing a state government without following established legal processes. The author argues that the judiciary cannot determine sovereignty disputes, and that only the United States government can decide which state government is legitimate in cases of insurrection. The author also argues that the Rhode Island government acted appropriately in declaring martial law and suppressing the rebellion led by Thomas Dorr, and that Dorr's group was not a legitimate government. Ultimately, the book provides insights into the nature of American federalism and the limits of judicial power in matters of sovereignty. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330831687_0
