FFA: American Constitutional Law [3. Sem. der FFA]

Dr. Matthew LeMieux

Veranstaltungstyp: Vorlesung
TeilnehmerInnen:

Beschreibung:
Students attending this course will take a deep dive into various aspects of fundamental rights found in the U.S. Constitution. They will do so using several cases that were or are working their way through the U.S. court system. The cases will be introduced to students in the first session, and then be used to some extent throughout the course. More specifically, students will begin by looking at 2nd Amendment rights as they learn about the methods used by U.S. courts to interpret the U.S. Constitution. The course will then turn its attention to the First Amendment, which houses provisions dealing with freedom of speech and religious liberty, among others. From there students will explore how the Supreme Court has dealt with the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause. We will then finish up by looking at how courts can and have read rights into the Constitution.

NOTE - To determine whether this class is suitable for non-law students, guest students who do not study law are asked to please contact the Law Department's International Coordinator Matt LeMieux (mlemieux@uos.de) before signing up.
