Example text

The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) illustrates the difficulty in amending the Constitution. Providing a constitutional guarantee of equal rights for women, this amendment was passed by Congress in March 1972 with a seven-year deadline for it to be ratified by threequarters of the states. Twenty-two of the necessary thirty-eight state ratifications were achieved in the first year but the pace slowed as opposition began to organise. There were only eight ratifications in 1973, three in 1974, one in 1975, and none in 1976.

In the five years after the end of the Civil War, three amendments were made to the United States Constitution. Collectively known as the Civil Rights amendments, they were intended to guarantee to African-Americans the constitutional rights that other races had enjoyed since independence: – the 13th Amendment incorporated the abolition of slavery into the Constitution. – the 14th Amendment guaranteed full rights to all, regardless of race. – the 15th Amendment guaranteed the right to vote, regardless of race.

Just one year later, in the fearful atmosphere that followed the terrorist attacks of 9/11, laws were passed that conflicted with some of the rights the Act was supposed to protect.

The importance of democracy Critics of a codified constitution, with such an emphasis on rights, argue that it can be undemocratic for the following reasons: • • Although US governments have managed to find ways to implement their policies much of the time, there have been periods when the strict separation of powers has led to ‘gridlock’, with different branches of government at odds with each other and unable to act.
