Oregon reapportionment history offers an appropriate introduction to a critique of the national reapportionment decisions of Baker vs Carr and Reynolds vs Sims.

Continuity And Change In American Constitutional Development And Public Policy: 1964-1976, Donald P. Kommers, Kevin C. Gallagher

Unlike the previous reports, however, we have devoted nearly half of this survey to recent public policy in the area of civil rights. This extensive treatment of civil …
