| Title | Enforcing the Bill of Rights Against the States: The History and the Future |
| Author(s) | Richard L. Aynes |
| First Page | 77 |

... The purpose of the article is to paint-in broad strokes- the ebb and flow of the debate in order to try to identify where we are and what the next frontiers of fourteenth amendment scholarship might be. |
