Description
In The Louisiana State Constitution, Lee Hargrave provides a compehensive history and provision-by-provision commentary of the state's current constitution. Descriptive analysis provides readers with important information about the origins of the constitutional provisions, as well as ways in which the courts and other governmental bodies have interpreted them. Previously published by Greenwood, this title has been brought back in to circulation by Oxford
University Press with new verve. Re-printed with standardization of content organization in order to facilitate research across the series. This title, as with all titles in the series, is set to join the dynamic revision cycle of The Oxford Commentaries on the State Constitutions of the United States.
The Oxford Commentaries on the State Constitutions of the United States is an important new series that reflects a renewed international interest in constitutional history and provides expert insight into each of the 50 state constitutions. Each volume in this innovative series contains a historical overview of the state's constitutional development, a section-by-section analysis of its current constitution, and a comprehensive guide to further research.
Under the expert editorship of Professor G. Alan Tarr, Director of the Center on State Constitutional Studies at Rutgers University, this series provides essential reference tools for understanding state constitutional law. Books in the series can be purchased individually or as part of a complete set, giving readers unmatched access to these important political documents.
