Good Reading

When Professor Gangi spoke at Chapman last month, he made reference to some interesting books and articles. Here they are for those that are interested:

1. The Federalist Papers (obvious, but no less important)
2. Kendall and Carey, The Basic Symbols of the American Political Tradition (highly recommended).
3. Bill Gangi, evaluation of Raoul Berger's Government by Judiciary, 8 Ohio Northern L R 1 (1981).
4. George Carey's Defense of the Constitution
5. Jerold Israel, The Art of Overruling (advising the Warren Court on how they can change the law without overruling precedent)
6. Bill Gangi, "The Rule of Men"
7. Herta Myer's book on the fourteenth Amendment
8. On 14th Amendment history, see volume 6, of the History of the Supreme Court (by Charles Fairman)
9. Eric Voegelin's New Science of Politics, and Voegelin's Anamnsis.
10. Natural Right and History by Leo Strauss.
