Notes de l'éditeur
- Each country has ultimate power within the system although there is an EU parliament and other institutions that set a common European policy.
- Madison's Federalist Paper #10 remains among the most influential works of American political theory.
- Implied Powers—allow the national government to make decisions that fall outside the expressed powers. Inherent Powers—recognized by all sovereign nations.
- Affirmed that the power of Congress is not strictly limited to the expressed powers. Marshall held that Congress has implied powers to carry out the expressed powers. This case set the precedent for the national government to regulate a wide range of economic activities.
- Post Civil War amendments represented a serious enhancement of national power. The national government now abolished slavery, defined who was an American citizen, and attempted (with limited success) to provide rights to the freed slaves that included the right to vote.
