![]() | First Amendment Institutions Subjects: United States. Constitution. 1st Amendment; Freedom of speech -- United States; Freedom of the press -- United States; Freedom of religion -- United States; Assembly Right of -- United States; Addressing a host of hot-button issues, from the barring of Christian student groups and military recruiters from law schools and universities to churches' immunity from civil rights legislation in hiring and firing ministers, Paul Horwitz proposes a radical reformation of First Amendment law. Arguing that rigidly doctrinal approaches can't account for messy, real-world situations, he suggests that the courts loosen their reins and let those institutions with a stake in First Amendment freedoms do more of the work of enforcing them. Paul Horwitz is Gordon Rosen Professor at the School of Law at the University of Alabama. |
