More about the book
Harris (political science, U. of Pennsylvania) examines three aspects of the US Constitution that are usually taken for its authoritativeness, its written character, and its consequent readability. Then, drawing on recent literary and constitutional theory, he argues that American politics is based not only on the written text, but on the unwritten working policy that it signifies, and shows how the two limit and transform each other.
