The family is the fundamental unit of a free society - and the Constitution has always recognized that. But, as government authority has expanded into schools, medical decisions, child custody proceedings, and domestic living arrangements, the constitutional warrior must know exactly where the Constitution draws the line.
"The Constitutional Family: The Complete Guide to Family Rights, Parental Authority, and the Constitution" is Volume VI of Wayne Evangelista's landmark Constitutional Law Series - a comprehensive, practitioner-grade explanation of every constitutional protection that bears on family life in America. Constitutional lawyer, legal scholar, and Minister Wayne Richard Evangelista brings the same relentless rigor and advocacy orientation that defines the entire series to one of its most personal subject: the constitutional rights of parents, spouses, children, and families against an overreaching government.
Inside this 449 page volume, the constitutional warrior will find complete treatment of: the fundamental right to direct the education and upbringing of one's children under "Meyer v. Nebraska" and "Pierce v. Society of Sisters", Fourth Amendment protection of the family home and the constitutional limits on child welfare investigations; due process rights in family court proceedings including custody, termination of parental rights, and foster care; First Amendment freedoms within family and religious life; Fourteenth Amendment equal protection in family law; the constitutional dimension of domestic violence law and protective orders; and the intersection of federal constitutional rights with Wisconsin family law.
Written by a practitioner for practitioners - and for every citizen who believes that family autonomy is worth defending - "The Constitutional Family" is the most complete guide to constitutional family rights available. No other volume in constitutional literature combines this level of doctrinal depth with the practical orientation of an experienced federal court litigator.
