Constitutional Liberty and Seditious Activity: Individual Liberty and Governmental Security is a book written by Jack Walter Peltason. The book explores the delicate balance between individual liberty and governmental security in the context of the United States Constitution. Peltason argues that the Constitution was designed to protect individual liberties, but also recognizes the need for government to maintain security and order. He examines the history of sedition laws in the United States, which have been used to suppress dissent and political opposition. The book also discusses the role of the judiciary in balancing individual rights and government power, particularly in cases involving national security. Peltason analyzes landmark Supreme Court cases, such as Schenck v. United States and Brandenburg v. Ohio, which have shaped the legal understanding of free speech and sedition. Overall, Constitutional Liberty and Seditious Activity provides a comprehensive analysis of the tension between individual liberty and governmental security in the United States, and offers insights into how this tension can be resolved in a way that upholds the principles of the Constitution.Freedom Agenda, No. 12.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
