handle is hein.amenin/aeiabbb0001 and id is 1 raw text is: Constitutional Controversies brings together distinguished scholars and public officials, representing a wide variety of points of view, for a series of lively discussions about the constitutional dimensions of contemporary public policy issues. Among the questions addressed: ,, Does the separation of powers still guard our liberty by preventing the accumulation of all powers into the same hands, as the Founders intended? Or has it made government weak and confused by producing deadlock between the president and Congress? ,, Does the War Powers Resolution of 1973 unconstitutionally restrict the president as commander in chief? Or is it a legitimate use of Congress's constitutional powers to make and execute foreign policy? , Is the current budget process---as reorganized most recently in the Congressional Budget and Impounding Control Act of 1974 --adequate for the development of sound federal budgets? Or do some of today's budget deficit problems point to the need for dramatic structural and even constitutional changes in the process7 -N Are race-conscious remedies necessary to increase minority group opportunities in employment and admissions to colleges and professional schools? Or are such preferences unconstitutional reverse discrimination? , When we interpret the Constitution today, should we do so in light of the intentions of the framers of the document? Or do we thereby make it a static document instead of a living Constitu- tion devoted to achieving social progress?
