The Sovereignty Of The States: An Oration (1910)

By Walter Neale

Book Overview

""The Sovereignty of the States: An Oration"" is a book written by Walter Neale and published in 1910. The book is a speech that Neale delivered on the topic of states' sovereignty, which refers to the idea that each state within a federation has the power to govern itself independently of the federal government. In the speech, Neale argues that the sovereignty of the states is a fundamental principle of the United States Constitution and that it is essential to the preservation of individual liberty and the proper balance of power between the federal government and the states. He also explores the historical and philosophical underpinnings of the concept of states' sovereignty, tracing its roots back to the ancient Greeks and Romans and examining its influence on the development of American political thought. Overall, ""The Sovereignty of the States: An Oration"" is a thought-provoking exploration of a key concept in American political theory and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of the United States Constitution.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
