Constitutional Conventions: Their Nature, Powers And Limitations is a book written by Roger Sherman Hoar. The book is a comprehensive exploration of the nature, powers, and limitations of constitutional conventions. It provides a detailed analysis of the role that constitutional conventions play in the development and interpretation of constitutions, both in the United States and around the world.The book begins by examining the history of constitutional conventions, tracing their origins back to ancient Greece and Rome. It then explores the various types of constitutional conventions, including those that are called to draft new constitutions, those that are convened to amend existing constitutions, and those that are held to interpret constitutional provisions.The book also delves into the powers and limitations of constitutional conventions, discussing the extent to which they can alter existing constitutional provisions and the constraints that are placed on their decision-making processes. It examines the role of public opinion, political pressure, and other factors that can influence the decisions made by constitutional conventions.Throughout the book, Hoar draws on a wide range of examples from the United States and other countries to illustrate the various points he makes. He also provides a detailed analysis of the constitutional conventions that have been held in the United States, including the Philadelphia Convention of 1787, which drafted the U.S. Constitution, and the state constitutional conventions that have been held throughout the country.Overall, Constitutional Conventions: Their Nature, Powers And Limitations is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and development of constitutional conventions. It provides a detailed and insightful analysis of these important institutions and their role in shaping the constitutions that govern our lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
