Person-Man
Introduction to Corporate Political Societies
Treatise #10 of Beers's 11-treatise corpus. Argues that the modern American political system operates as a corporate body politic — a political society structured for the governance of slaves and freedmen, with citizens occupying obligations to a corporate sovereign via trust relationships.
Society of Slaves and Freedmen
Treatise #9 of Beers's 11-treatise corpus. Argues that modern American citizens exist in a legal status functionally equivalent to Roman slaves or freedmen — bearing the label 'person' which historically denoted a character subject to the will of a master, with the federal tax system operating on this slave/freedman classification.
Resident/Minister
Treatise #7 of Beers's 11-treatise corpus. Argues that the legal terms 'resident' and 'minister' both describe persons subject to or serving under a foreign superior authority, and that the modern classification of Americans as 'residents' places them in a status historically associated with servitude.
Liberty
Treatise #2 of Beers's 11-treatise corpus. The corpus's definitional and philosophical engine room — liberty as divinely mandated, 'person' as artificial civil-law construct distinct from 'man,' common law as biblical foundation, the Declaration of Independence as super-constitutional standard, and the knowing-voluntary-intentional consent standard for legal obligations. The consent standard is identified by the treatise's own dependency map as the most load-bearing axiom in the entire corpus. Per-treatise verification surfaced five principal contradictions in the citation cascade: Nebbia liberty language is McReynolds dissent (not Roberts majority); Swift v. Tyson is counsel argument AND was overruled by Erie (1938); Pembina defines 'citizens' for Article IV P&I purposes (not 'natural persons' as allegiance-status); Jacobson supports state power (not limits on it); In re Booth was reversed by Ableman v. Booth (1859).
