The Presidential Pardon The Short Clause with a Long, Troubled History【電子書籍】[ Saikrishna Bangalore Prakash ]

＜p＞＜strong＞Astonishing, unconstrained, and often unsettlingーthe presidential pardon is one of the most powerful tools in American government, and this indispensable book is your guide to how it defines the presidency, justice, and politics.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Constitution’s Pardon Clause grants the president a power unmatched in scope and consequence. In ＜em＞The Presidential Pardon,＜/em＞ legal scholar Saikrishna Prakash explores how this brief clause has grown into the most expansive and controversial tool of the modern presidency.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Originally intended as a mechanism of mercyーto temper harsh laws and foster reconciliationーthe pardon was once used with solemnity and circumspection. Today, it has evolved into a blunt and potent political instrument. Presidents use it to shield allies, reward supporters, fulfill campaign promises, and issue sweeping pardons to make a political statement. In January 2025, for instance, the outgoing and incoming presidents issued major pardonsーone to protect relatives and allies, the other to fulfill a promise to his electoral coalition.

As the partisan exercise of pardon grows more routine, Prakash asks: Can our rule of law survive a presidential power that is checked by no one?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
