ERA, may a state change its vote? (Waynebook ; 46) - Hardcover

Here is a definitive work on the rescission issue which makes available the documents tracing the historical and legal precedents of rescission attempts. The authors provide a unique two-pronged approach. Part I of the book clearly explains a difficult constitutional controversy, and Part II provides cases and materials for in-depth study of the issue.

The extensive appendices set forth, in full or in excerpted form, the historically relevant cases, opinions from the Justice Department, the states' attorneys general, congressional debates, statutes, and constitutional opinions.

Women's rights advocates, scholars, legislators, and members of the judiciary will find in this source a thorough review of the rescission doctrine in the context of the struggle over the passage of the ERA.
