The Law of American State Constitutions provides complete coverage of the legal doctrines surrounding, applying to, and arising from American state constitutions. Using specific examples, Professor Williams provides legal analysis of the unique nature and function of state constitutions, including rights, separation of powers, policy-based provisions, the unique judicial interpretation issues that arise under state constitutions and the processes for their amendment
and revision. The Law of American State Constitutions is the first book to present a complete picture of the current body of state constitutional law and its judicial interpretation.
