Features: American law is one of the two major representatives of the common law system. The legal system of the United States is quite complex, with no single or unified legal system. Among them, the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution play an irreplaceable role in the constitutional development of the United States. The editors of this book have deeply reflected on the value of the fundamental systems and basic ideas established by these two for the development of American rule of law society, completing two works: "The Declaration of Independence: The Voice of the Desire for Freedom" and "The U.S. Constitution: The Foundation of Good Governance." The book combines historical analysis with rich text and illustrations, providing readers with an extremely valuable reference for a comprehensive understanding of American law and its foundations. The book focuses on depicting the wars, figures, and events during the American Revolutionary War and around the Constitutional Convention that had a key impact on the drafting and implementation of the U.S. Constitution. The unique feature of this book lies in its citation of numerous documents and materials, including images, all with clear annotations and internet links. If readers wish to conduct in-depth research on a particular issue, they can conveniently obtain further data and resources from the internet. For professionals studying the U.S. Constitution, constitutionalism, and the foundations of the rule of law, as well as for university and graduate students in law and political science, and for those who wish to see profound reflections and rich materials on the drafting and deliberation process of the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, this book is a highly valuable reference.
