This article explores the federal judiciary's use of eighteenth–century social contract theory inUnited States v. Verdugo–Urquidez(494 US 259) to interpret the constitutional rhetoric of "the people" for our time. The principal version of social contract theory at play inVerdugorecalls a republican ideology which forms an old and volatile current in American political thought, an ideology which supports a far more exclusionary standard of membership in the nation than has obtained for most of this century, and which has important implications for the construction of political authority it is enlisted to support.

SCHOLARLY TREATMENTS OF THE POLITICAL THOUGHT OF JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU HAVE NEGLECTED THE INFLUENCE OF CALVINIST IDEAS ON HIS THEORY OF THE STATE. THIS ARTICLE ARGUES THAT ROUSSEAU'S POLITICAL THOUGHT WAS SHAPED IN PART BY HIS EXPERIENCES GROWING UP IN CALVINIST GENEVA AND THAT HE ADAPTED AND TRANSFORMED GENEVAN CALVINIST THEMES IN HIS POLITICAL THOUGHT. AT THE SAME TIME, THE AUTHOR RECOGNIZES THAT ROUSSEAU AS DEEPLY CONFLICTED ABOUT GENEVAN CALVINISM, AND CONCLUDES WITH COMMENTARY OF THE IRONY OF ROUSSEAU'S CALVINIST CONNECTION.

How can huge populations be fed healthily, equitably and affordably while maintaining the ecosystems on which life depends? The evidence of diet's impact on public health and the environment has grown in recent decades, yet changing food supply, consumer habits and economic aspirations proves hard.This book explores what is meant by sustainable diets and why this has to be the goal for the Anthropocene, the current era in which human activities are driving the mismatch of humans and the planet. Food production and consumption are key drivers of transitions already underway, yet policy makers hesitate to reshape public eating habits and tackle the unsustainability of the global food system.The authors propose a multi-criteria approach to sustainable diets, giving equal weight to nutrition and public health, the environment, socio-cultural issues, food quality, economics and governance. This six-pronged approach to sustainable diets brings order and rationality to what either is seen as too complex to handle or is addressed simplistically and ineffectually. The book provides a major overview of this vibrant issue of interdisciplinary and public interest. It outlines the reasons for concern and how actors throughout the food system (governments, producers, civil society and consumers) must engage with (un)sustainable diets.
