Total incorporation (sometimes called "mechanical incorporation") would apply the first eight amendments of the Bill of Rights (the Ninth and Tenth aren't individual rights; the Ninth isn't triable) to the states as a single unit via the Fourteenth Amendment, as some constitutional scholars argue was the original intent.

Selective incorporation applies individual clauses within the Bill of Rights as the need arises due to US Supreme Court decisions. This has left certain portions of the first eight amendments, including the Second and Seventh Amendments in their entirety, under state government control. Second Amendment incorporation was recently challenged in McDonald v. Chicago, (2010); the Court is expected to make a determination on the matter by the end of June 2010.
