Colorado's legal cannabis program generated a strange scenario in which many politicians, including many who freely invoke the Tenth Amendment, seemed to be attacking the progressive state for asserting states' rights. Unusual as this may seem, this has happened before - in the early part of the twentieth century, as America concluded a decades-long struggle over the suppression of alcohol during Prohibition. Sean Beienburg recovers a largely forgotten constitutional debate, revealing how Prohibition became a battlefield on which skirmishes of American political development, including the debate over federalism and states' rights, were fought. Beienburg focuses on the massive extension of federal authority involved in Prohibition and the passage of the Eighteenth Amendment, describing the roles and reactions of not just Congress, the presidents, and the Supreme Court but political actors throughout the states, who jockeyed with one another to claim fidelity to the Tenth Amendment while reviling nationalism and nullification alike. The most comprehensive treatment of the constitutional debate over Prohibition to date, the book concludes with a discussion of the parallels and differences between Prohibition in the 1920s and debates about the legalization of marijuana today. 610 10 $a United States. $t Constitution. $n 18th Amendment. 610 10 $a United States. $t Constitution. $n 21st Amendment. 630 07 $a Constitution (United States) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01356075 650 0 $a Prohibition $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Federal government $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Prohibition $x History $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Federal government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922333 650 7 $a Prohibition. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01078761 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318012655.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200303023644.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=08E28AD2101B11EA8DA14E4D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
