| Abstract | "In the more than 230 years since the United States Constitution took effect, the constitutional law governing the conduct of foreign affairs has evolved, but it has not been changed through formal amendments. Rather, it has been shaped and defined by the practices of Congress and the executive branch, also known as "historical gloss." This book provides an account of this process on major issues ranging from the recognition of foreign governments to the making and termination of treaties, to the use of military force"-- Provided by publisher. |
